ldirectord refusing connection when nginx redirects from http to https
- by Adam
I am running ldirector as a load balancer to an nginx front end server.
If I setup a redirect from http to https and connect directly to the nginx server, all is well.
Connecting via ldirector causes my connection to be refused.
I can connect normally via http or https through ldirector when I don't have the redirect in place.
To add to my confusion, if my application issues a redirect from http to https, it works.
I am testing this via curl on the command line. (curl: (7) couldn't connect to host vs a response)
I am using the standard ldirectord config (http://www.ultramonkey.org/3/topologies/config/lb/non-fwmark/linux-director/ldirectord.cf) the http and https parts.
My nginx config for the redirect is simply:
location / {
rewrite ^(.*) https://$host$1 permanent;
}
