jc21/nginx-proxy-manager [Advice/userguide]

Post by VPCAdmin »

Hi all, I am a relative newbie to the concept of reverse proxy setup but I understand that it makes sense to do so I can limit external ports being open. However I wanted this to be an easy lightweight operation that ideally had some sort of GUI interface.

I have managed via docker to install https://github.com/jc21/nginx-proxy-manager as a docker install and after some tinkering realised the config file needed to be in the route of the NGINX App Folder to get it going.

So I have NGINX running as expected on :79
I have the GUI running on :81

But I still do not seem to be able to get the re-directions working. Has anyone had any success on a TS-453A or similar or willing to share relevant threads. I have googled, searched threads and youtube for ideas but struggling so reaching out the the community.

I see a few people have taken a look at this but not bothered with a reply... I ended up installing what I assume is a fork of the jc21 development jlesage/nginx-proxy-manager.

A lot of my issues was finding out what IP I needed to point to i.e. OpenProject, Wordpress, Nextcloud of which some are separated IP addresses for web and db for example. Anyway I seem to have got most kinks ironed out!

Not sure if this will help at all but QNAP Stephane has already compile nginx app for the NAS (instead of using a docker) which includes the reverse proxy.
