Topic: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): lastest
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: U 14.04
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): LDAP
- Web server (Apache or Nginx): Nginx 1.8
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro? No
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

When I update Nginx to 1.8, it asked to replace the iRedMail-modified nginx.conf with the latest nginx.conf, I accepted that, and my site had broke http to https redirect

I run sudo nginx -t and face below warnings:

nginx: [warn] conflicting server name "_" on 0.0.0.0:80, ignored
nginx: [warn] conflicting server name "_" on [::]:80, ignored

After checking, I replace the server_name in both http and https as follows:

Old:

server_name _;

New:

sever_name mail.example.com;

and it works!

Do I have to modify anything to make sure that iRedMail is in good configuration?

Thank you and best regards,

Quy

Re: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

Does it backup original iRedMail configured Nginx config file? if yes, please restore it. If not, please get a sample nginx.conf below and replace all placeholders (PH_*) by the real value:
https://bitbucket.org/zhb/iredmail/src/ … les/nginx/

The only missing part of the new nginx.conf comparing to the iRedMail's one is:

upstream php_workers {
server unix:/var/run/php-fpm.socket;

but this line is included in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf, so I think that it doesn't need to be added again in the nginx.conf

Am I correct?

Re: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

Does your /etc/nginx/nginx.conf has line below inside `http {}` block?

include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;

both:

include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;

are in the nginx.conf

Re: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

Comment out "include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;" line, restart Nginx and try again.

Today I received the below from email:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
Stopping iredapd ...
Starting iredapd ...
error: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/nginx/*.log '
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
/etc/cron.daily/tmpreaper:
Please read /usr/share/doc/tmpreaper/README.security.gz first;
edit /etc/tmpreaper.conf to remove this message (look for SHOWWARNING).

Could you please straighten the problem for me with thanks

Re: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

Does it happen everyday or just this time?

Re: Nginx 1.8 and broke http to https redirect

You receive these emails about a failed cron job:

Subject

Cron test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )

The body of the email is:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/nginx/*.log ' run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1

This is how I fixed it:

sudo service nginx rotate

Then the problem disappears

Dec 29, 2023: iRedMail-1.6.8 has been released.
