Followed this link to configure Nginx click here Tried to connect WebSocket(socketo.me) through HTTPS, didn't succeed gave the error as
WebSocket opening handshake timed out
As my hosting server's ngnix (version: 1.13.8) is configured to work in reverse proxy mode in the front-end. Here is the configuration of the Nginx
http {
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
default upgrade;
'' close;
}
upstream websocket {
server xx.xxx.xxx.x:8282; #External IP address
}
server {
location / {
proxy_pass http://xx.xxx.xxx.x:8080; #External IP address
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
proxy_read_timeout 120s;
}
}
}
chatroom.php
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var conn = new WebSocket('ws://xx.xxx.xxx.x:8282');
conn.onopen = function(e) {
console.log("Connection established!");
};
conn.onmessage = function(e) {
console.log(e.data);
...
};
conn.onclose = function(e) {
console.log("Connection Closed!");
}
})
</script>
server.php
<?php
use Ratchet\Server\IoServer;
use Ratchet\Http\HttpServer;
use Ratchet\WebSocket\WsServer;
use MyApp\Chat;
require dirname(__DIR__) . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$server = IoServer::factory(
new HttpServer(
new WsServer(
new Chat()
)
),
8282
);
$server->run();
Before applying SSL,
Then after applying SSL,
Established the WebSocket connection via port #8282 from the terminal as shown below
root@user:/var/www/vhosts/somedomain.xy/httpdocs/chatroom-php-mysql/bin# php server.php
Server Started.
New connection! (84)
Connection 84 has disconnected
When website URL is opened in browser basically this is what it happens as follows:
Client request comes to front-end Nginx asking for some resource (.html page, .php page, image, javascript, etc). Nginx in our hosting server works on TCP ports: 80 - http, 443 - https.
Nginx checks if it has the resource already in its cache.
If the resource is cached, Nginx returns the cached content.
If the resource is not cached or if the dynamic page (e.g. index.php) is requested, Nginx proxies (forwards) the request to back-end server - Apache. Apache in our hosting server works on TCP ports: 7080 - http, 7081 - https. Then Nginx caches static content - HTML, images, js, css.
Updated:
Symbolic link had been created in
/etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts
in somedomain.xy.conf

Also, In Nginx we are not able to see such directories they are /etc/nginx/sites-available/*
and /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*
,
we will be seeing under /etc/apache2
