    Dear all,

    I've been trying for hours to get EJBCA working behind Nginx Proxy Manager. I've deployed EJBCA using Docker without issue using the following docker-compose:
    `
    version: '3'
    services:
    ejbca-database:
    container_name: ejbca-database
    image: library/mariadb:lts
    networks:
    - application-bridge
    environment:
    - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=foo123
    - MYSQL_DATABASE=ejbca
    - MYSQL_USER=ejbca
    - MYSQL_PASSWORD=ejbca
    volumes:
    - ejbca-data:/var/lib/mysql:rw
    ejbca-node1:
    hostname: ejbca-node1
    container_name: ejbca
    image: keyfactor/ejbca-ce:latest
    depends_on:
    - ejbca-database
    networks:
    - proxy_network
    - application-bridge
    environment:
    - DATABASE_JDBC_URL=jdbc:mariadb://ejbca-database:3306/ejbca?characterEncoding=UTF-8
    - LOG_LEVEL_APP=INFO
    - LOG_LEVEL_SERVER=INFO
    - TLS_SETUP_ENABLED=true

    volumes:
    ejbca-data:

    networks:
    proxy_network:
    external: true # proxy_network need to be created beforehand in Portainer interface
    application-bridge:
    driver: bridge
    `
    Enrollment is working like a charm and I was able to import the certificate into the browser.

    That said, trying the access the https://myserver/ejbca/adminweb/ url is leading to an authorization denied error:

    Authorization Denied
    No client certificate was presented

    If you did not get prompted to select a client certificate, please check that you have the correct certificate.
    I guess this is probably due to NPN configuration, but no idea how I could tackle this issue...

    I've found the following link but brought more confusion than other.
    https://sourceforge.net/p/ejbca/discussion/123123/thread/d7b4c6b884/

    In particular I don't understand what about ports 8081 / 8082 that are referenced in the configuration... I may have missed something…

    I'm close to give up... Any clues about how I could get it working behind RP?

    Regards
