Hello All,

I am using a Centos 7 OS and I am using nginx for an Angular application. It was easy configuring nginx to work with http, but when I obtained SSL certificate, key, etc from Cloudflare and tried to configure nginx to work with https it didn't work even after trying several solutions provided online.

I get "The page isn’t redirecting properly" error with the settings below:

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
----------------------------------
user nginx;
worker_processes auto;
pid /run/nginx.pid;

# Load dynamic modules. See /usr/share/nginx/README.dynamic.
include /usr/share/nginx/modules/*.conf;

events {
worker_connections 1024;
# multi_accept on;
}

http {

return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

}

/etc/nginx/sites-available/hero.com.conf
--------------------------------------------------------
server {
listen 443 ssl;
include /etc/nginx/snippets/ssl-nohaso.com.conf;
include /etc/nginx/snippets/ssl-params.conf;

server_name nohaso.com;
location / {
root /var/www/html/cadastral.nohaso.com;
index index.html index.htm;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
}
}

Earlier on when I used the setting below, it goes to the default nginx page instead of my own page in /var/www/html/hero.com with this message:
"This is the default index.html page that is distributed with nginx on Fedora. It is located in /usr/share/nginx/html.
You should now put your content in a location of your choice and edit the root configuration directive in the nginx configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf."

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
--------------------------------------------------
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name _;

return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

/etc/nginx/sites-available/hero.com.conf
----------------------------------------------------
server {
listen 80;
server_name nohaso.com;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
}

server {
listen [::]:443 ssl ipv6only=on;
listen 443 ssl;

server_name nohaso.com;
root /var/www/html/nohaso.com;

include /etc/nginx/snippets/ssl-nohaso.com.conf;
include /etc/nginx/snippets/ssl-params.conf;

# other vhost configuration
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please, could someone point me to what I am doing wrong. I want https pages displayed for the domain and subdomain.
