I manage to make Moqui instance in AWS EB accessible via HTTPS by setting up the ec2 load balancer. To point the obvious, Moqui's jetty listening to port 5000, ec2 Nginx listens to port 80 (and forward it to port 5000), ec2 load balancer listens to port 80 and 443 (and forward it to ec2 Nginx port 80). If you don't want to use load balancer you can setup ec2 Nginx to listen for HTTPS and forward it to Moqui's jetty port 5000 the same way Nginx HTTP does. The least preferred way is passing some https jetty's parameters via environment variables, small changes might be needed in MoquiStart. It was years ago and I don't recall the detail but Jetty was able to serve HTTPS this way.
