I try to deploy a Mercure hub on a server.
There is already a Symfony app (REST API) served with Apache2 (and Nginx configured in reverse proxy). My idea is to keep the API proxy to Apache2 and configure the Mercure subscriptions to be forwarded to the Mercure Hub (a Caddy server).
All is ok for the API part, but it's impossible to configure Nginx and Caddy correctly to work together. I precise that I reach the hub successfully when it's not behind Nginx. I use a custom certificate and, for some reason, each time I try to subscribe to the hub, I have this error :
DEBUG http.stdlib http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:36250: no certificate available for '127.0.0.1'
If I modify my Nginx configuration with proxy_pass https://mydomain:3000;
instead of proxy_pass https://127.0.0.1:3000;
, the error becomes :
DEBUG http.stdlib http: TLS handshake error from PUBLIC-IP:36250: no certificate available for 'PRIVATE-IP'
There is no further explaination in the Caddy or Nginx logs.
My guess is Nginx does not transfer the proper requested domain to Caddy, but I don't know why as I applied correctly the configuration instructions I found on the specification. Any help would be appreciated, thank you !
