I followed the docker installation instructions and added the certificate successfully but I get this status:

400 Bad Request | nginx

host nginx error logs:

I replaced my host IP and domain for privacy

Please see my comments below for more info. I tried putting all text here in the body but it won’t let me post.

EDIT: It is now fixed! What I did is replace the following line in my host nginx:

location / {
         proxy_pass http://localhost:82;
         proxy_set_header Host $host;  <---- replace this
         include proxy_params;
    }

With this:

location / {
         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:82;
         proxy_set_header Connection "keep-alive, Upgrade";
         proxy_set_header Upgrade websocket;
         include proxy_params;
    }
