I'm actually working on a webapp, I use Reactjs
for the frontend and Golang
for the backend. Those 2 programs are hosted separately on 2 VMs on Google-Compute-Engine
. I want to serve my app through https
so I choose to use Nginx
for serving the frontend in production. Firstly I made my config file for Nginx
:
#version: nginx/1.14.0 (ubuntu)server { listen 80 default_server; listen [::]:80 default_server; root /var/www/banshee; server_name XX.XXX.XX.XXX; #public IP of my frontend VM index index.html; location / { try_files $uri /index.html =404; } }
For this part everything works as expected but after that I want to serve my App over https
following this tutorial. I installed the packages software-properties-common
,python-certbot-apache
and certbot
but when I tried
sudo cerbot --nginx certonly
I get the following message:
gdes@frontend:/etc/nginx$ sudo certbot --nginx certonlySaving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.logCould not choose appropriate plugin: The requested nginx plugin does not appear to be installedThe requested nginx plugin does not appear to be installed
I made some searches on Google and here and I still can't figure out which plugin is missing or an other way to fix this.
Does someone have an idea tohelp me ?
Thanks a lot :)
