So: nginx is not listening for https requests?

And the http server isn't listening at all? Or maybe your routing or
other proxying is broken -- this command should be run from the same
machine that a browser is on that sees the failure. The aim is to see
the exact response which leads to the failure. But it may not matter,
see below.

So: the loadbalancer listens for http and https, and sends both requests
to nginx as http?

Which means nginx can't tell whether the initial request was http or https?

Do the http-to-https redirect on the load balancer, which knows whether
the initial request was http or https.

Or configure the load balancer to give a clue to nginx whether the
initial request was http or https, and configure your nginx to respond
to that clue.
