SSL only works for login page

Seafile Server
1

Hi all,

For some reason SSL only works for the login page, as soon as I login I get the following error:

ssl

I’ve setup a reverse proxy with nginx.

I’m going to guess you forgot to move the location /media to the port 443 server with ssl on. That section should contain only a redirect, like this:

    server {
        listen 80;
        server_name seafile.example.com;
        rewrite ^ https://$http_host$request_uri? permanent;	# force redirect http to https
        server_tokens off;
    }

Provide more info on your nginx config if you want a more accurate answer.

Thank you for the reply. I’m not sure of the location /media as my nginx is on another machine. Are you reffering to this?

location /media {
    root /home/user/haiwen/seafile-server-latest/seahub;
}

Here is my current nginx config:

##
## HTTP 80
##

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name domain.seafile.com;

    rewrite ^ https://$http_host$request_uri? permanent;
    return 301 https://domain.seafile.com$request_uri;
    server_tokens off;
}

##
## HTTPS 443
##

server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name domain.seafile.com;
