Hello,
I’m trying to set up Seafile using docker on my Ubuntu Server v22.04 VPS. I followed the instructions here on the seafile website at /docker/deploy_seafile_with_docker/ and downloaded the docker-compose.yml file, and ran docker-compose up -d.
When I run docker-compose up -d with SEAFILE_SERVER_LETSENCRYPT=false, and the HTTP port set to a high port, Seafile works correctly. I’m able to login, and after logging in, going to system admin and changing SERVICE_URL and FILE_SERVER_ROOT to use my custom port, file uploads and downloads both work.
Initially I created a reverse proxy to this Seafile website with Nginx, outside of the docker container. However, the downloads were not offered over HTTPS, and since the Seafile website itself wasn’t HTTPS, I felt like there would be some security concerns, so I tried setting up HTTPS Seafile.
When SEAFILE_SERVER_LETSENCRYPT=true, SEAFILE_SERVER_HOSTNAME is set to my hostname, and I have a DNS record pointing to the Server, Seafile gives a 502 bad gateway error from Nginx. This is not accessing it through the proxy I made. However, the error is given over HTTPS.
When I check the Seafile logs, I get this error:
seafile | [2023-10-06 12:24:43] Preparing for letsencrypt ...
seafile | [2023-10-06 12:24:43] Starting letsencrypt verification
seafile | Traceback (most recent call last):

seafile | subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '/scripts/ssl.sh /shared/ssl <seafile>.<example>.com' returned non-zero exit status 1.
The website at /docker/deploy_seafile_with_docker/ says that if I get the non-zero exit status 128, I should edit /scripts/ssl.sh in the docker container. However, my non-zero exit status is 1. I tried this anyway, but there are no instances of the phrase “git:” in /scripts/ssl.sh. Anyway, this error is apparently fixed in my version.
I’m not sure where to go from here. No one else online seems to have this problem. How do I fix this?
