I setup nginx controller following the tutorial on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROa2OLWqsMI
It was simple and straight forward.
My issue is that when I the enter the url (configured in the controller) to test routing
(http://frontend.20.69.87.150.nip.io/webapp1) the browser opens a new tab with correct name of the target page but it does not display anything.

yaml file

Tried different browsers with same result.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
