[SOLVED] Don't know how to setup HTTPS
Hello everyone, I am a newbie in server administration and a complete newbie in web server configuration. I am running CentOS 9 Stream and Appwrite on my VPS. I also have a purchased domain. Ports 80 and 443 are open. Currently, I am in a situation where I can access Appwrite via the web, but only via HTTP, not HTTPS. I have done everything mentioned in the documentation for tls certificates. https://www.appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting/tls-certificates
I apologize for possibly a dumb question, but I really don't know what to do next. Is it necessary to install a web server as a reverse proxy and for example certbot, to make HTTPS functional? Or is there an option to configure Appwrite itself without using external applications?
Is it necessary to install a web server as a reverse proxy
Nope
have you browsed to appwrite with the self-signed cert?
Nope, haven't tried. Not sure how.
This is output of docker compose logs appwrite-worker-certificates command

do you have anything in front of appwrite? like cloudflare proxy?
FYI, it's best to wrap code in backticks to format a bit nicer. You can use 1 backtick for inline code (https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#code) and 3 backticks for multiline code (https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#syntax-highlighting.
I am not aware of that. nor does the output from curl suggest this.
can you share your domain? feel free to DM me if you don't want to share here?
weird...everything seems okay...
are you still seeing the problem?
I found out, that i can generate certificates for my subdomains. So I configured appwrite to have the subdomain as it’s main domain and it works alright now. Thank you for the help though:)
