How to allow one domain SSLDomain1\.info to use SSL whilst rest of the domains (hundreds of them and dynamically added, need wildcard _) are simple HTTP 80 ? If I use Server{ FOR SSLDOMAIN.info } Server{ FOR REST} Then I can’t have both ssl and http ☹ It is one way or another, very annoying nginx, not flexible Nginx gives error no matter how I try Why can’t I use simple condition? If ($host=”SSLDOMAIN1.info”){ ssl on; ssl_certificate /var/www/SSLDomain1.info/ssl/SSLDomain1_info.bundle.crt; ssl_certificate_key /var/www/SSLDomain1.info/ssl/SSLDomain1_info.key; } example of conf server { listen 80; listen 443 ssl; if ($host ~* (SSLDomain1\.info)){ #ssl on; #ssl_certificate /var/www/SSLDomain1.info/ssl/SSLDomain1_info.bundle.crt; #ssl_certificate_key /var/www/SSLDomain1.info/ssl/SSLDomain1_info.key; } server_name _; server_name_in_redirect off; if ($host ~* ^(.*\..*)$) { set $domain $host; } if ($host ~* ^(.*)\.(.*\..*)$) { set $domain $2; } root /var/www/$domain; location / { index index.php; if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 last; break; } location ~ \.php$ { fastcgi_pass php; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi.conf; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*'; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' 'true'; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, POST, OPTIONS'; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'DNT,X-CustomHeader,Keep-Alive,User-Agent,X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Cache-Control,Content-Type'; } } }
