Also just to give as much info as possible this is how I created the keys:

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /etc/nginx/ssl/biscotty.dev.ke
y -out /etc/nginx/ssl/biscotty.dev.crt

Here are a few things you can check (all of these need to be run as root or using `sudo`):

Is nginx actually listening on port 443? There are lots of different commands you can use to check this, but I like to use `netstat -lptn | grep nginx`.

Is there an error in your config? Check this with `nginx -t`.

Have you allowed port 443 through your firewall? Check `/var/log/syslog` for firewall messages.

    Hi,

    I'm pretty new to nginx but do have a server up and running. I've
    been
    pulling my hair out over ssl setup though. I have read the docs on
    your
    server and some others like the alpine site. The most recent
    attempt I
    followed the video tutorial on your website. Whenever I try to
    connect
    via ssl it hangs.  I hope someone here has some ideas because I don't
    know where else to turn.

    No errors show in the nginx logs.

    I'm running Ubuntu 20.04. Nginx was installed following the
    instructions
    on your website.

    When I try to access http://www.biscotty.dev with curl I get a
    response.
    If I explicitly request https it hangs indefinitely. The
    commands/responses are posted below.

    Not sure if this matters but I have learned that dev domains try to
    enforce https, so explicitly using http in a browser gui craps out no
    matter what, but curl ignores this and serves you via http anyway. I
    don't know if this matters but I thought I would mention it.

    Here is my .conf file. I have not modified anything else from the
    initial install.

    '''
    server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    server_name www.biscotty.dev <http://www.biscotty.dev>;
    return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
    }

    server {
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name www.biscotty.dev <http://www.biscotty.dev>;

    ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/biscotty.dev <http://biscotty.dev>.crt;
