Listmonk email server, running via docker through nginx vhost. Resolves with port at the end but I get a 502 bad gateway error without the port.

EDIT: It was a firewall issue. I disabled my firewall and it works.

https://listmonk.app/

The site loads properly on serverIP:5870 and if I change proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5870; to proxy_pass http://listmonk.mydomain.com:5870; then it will load on listmonk.mydomain.com:5870. But it gives the 502 error when I visit the site without the port.

If I set proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5870; and visit listmonk.mydomain.com:5870 I get:

The connection for this site is not secure
listmonk.mydomain.com sent an invalid response.

the purpose of using nginx is to not have to use the port number in this scenario, the reason it works is because your DNS for that hostname still points to that machine that both containers are running on. Normal DNS A and cname records do not contain port information.

The 502 bad gateway error means that nginx is not able to connect to the upstream host for that hostname, this is where you need to use the port for the other container (5870). Do know that using localhost in docker will not have the results you are expecting, if these are on the same host you can use the name you have configured for the container as the hostname in nginx otherwise use the host IP, in your case it would be http://listmonk_app:5870.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! I was using 127.0.0.1 because that’s what other people were successfully using: https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/issues/1590#issuecomment-1812399067. I had tried variations of proxy_pass http://app:5870; because I’m running listmonk successfully on another server using proxy_pass http://app:9000;, but that is when nginx is running from inside the docker container:

services:
  db:
    <<: *db-defaults
    container_name: listmonk_db
    volumes:
      - type: volume
        source: listmonk-data
        target: /var/lib/postgresql/data

  app:
    <<: *app-defaults
    container_name: listmonk_app
    depends_on:
      - db
    volumes:
      - ./config.toml:/listmonk/config.toml
      - ./listmonk/uploads:/listmonk/uploads

  nginx:
    image: nginx:mainline-alpine
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "80:80"
      - "443:443"
    volumes:
      - ./data/nginx:/etc/nginx/conf.d
      - ./data/certbot/conf:/etc/letsencrypt
      - ./data/certbot/www:/var/www/certbot
    networks:
      - listmonk
    depends_on:
      - app
    command: "/bin/sh -c 'while :; do sleep 6h & wait $${!}; nginx -s reload; done & nginx -g \"daemon off;\"'"

  certbot:
    image: certbot/certbot
    restart: unless-stopped
    container_name: certbot
    volumes:
      - ./data/certbot/conf:/etc/letsencrypt
      - ./data/certbot/www:/var/www/certbot
    networks:
      - listmonk
    depends_on:
      - nginx
    entrypoint: "/bin/sh -c 'trap exit TERM; while :; do certbot renew; sleep 12h & wait $${!}; done;'"

I forgot to try proxy_pass http://listmonk_app:5870; though. I just tried that and I got the same error that I get with proxy_pass http://app:5870;.
