Hi. I want to start selfhosting my data. I already have a jellyfin server running. I’d like to add a nextcloud instance. The setup of nextcloud says I should open up port 443 for using my own domain. Sadly I am not able to open up this port properly. It is open however when I visit jellyfin.mydomaim.com it is rerouted to the config of my router. To circumvent this problem I have set up a reverse proxy that accepts port 8443 instead of 443. For my jellyfin this seems to work. I can visit it with jellyfin.my domain.com:8443. I don’t know how I can get this to work for nextcloud as it only accepts 443. Any advice on my setup is welcome! BTW I am running Debian on an old PC.
Thanks in advance for the help!

    To me this seems like a routing issue. Some things to check:

    • Can a port checking service (like canyouseeme) see 443?
    • Can you connect to 443 from the internet (use a VPN or separate network)?
    • Can you edit your hosts file to point jellyfin.mydomain.com to your jellyfin server’s LAN IP?
    • After doing this, can you connect to jellyfin.mydomain.com on the LAN?

    My guess is the router is routing traffic to it’s external IP from the LAN back to itself, without following port forwarding rules. Good luck figuring it out though!
