Edit: SOLUTION: I had to use 127.0.0.1 and port 81 for the proxy host that points to the NPM admin page
I’m trying to follow this tutorial from Wolfgang’s Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlcVx-k-02E but I’m using Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) on TrueNAS Scale.
I managed to get the SSL certificate working (the challenge is successful) but after setting up the proxy host for NPM I’m unable to reach the WebUI of NPM like he does in the video after setting that up.
This is the setting for my proxy host.
But when trying to access the WebUI through the domain name all I get is 504 Gateway Time-out. Does anyone know what I did wrong?
Nginx Proxy Manager is also properly setup to use ports 80/443. So when I access the IP address without any port I get sent to the default site of NPM.
For me the config site is configured to port 10582 and I’m trying to access it locally.
@Tywele How are you trying to access it locally? Are you using its fully qualified domain name and does that resolve to your WAN address? If so, you MAY need to locally override the DNS entry with its LAN address. You need to use the FQDN though.
I had this issue when using a VLAN for this server (as in the server I’m writing this on). “Thegoatery.dyndns.org” resolves to my ip address, the router goes, “oh, that’s me”, but won’t route it because the source and destination are on different VLANs and it has no rules to route via the WAN address.
I’ve setup 2 additional proxy hosts now one for syncthing and one for the web UI of TrueNAS to see if they are working and they are working perfectly fine. It seems like only the NPM admin page itself is not working and giving me a gateway time-out.
