I am using Kubernetes within Google Cloud Kubernetes Engine and have setup the following: - Nginx docker image (nginx:latest), which is hosting a web application - Kubernetes Deployment (yaml file) - Kubernetes Service (yaml file) - Kubernetes Secret with existing key and certificates (Wildcard PositiveSSL) - Kubernetes Ingress

Currently I have both HTTP and HTTPS working. However, I want to redirect any and all HTTP calls to HTTPS automatically, but don't seem to get it to be working.

I have tried many variations of the conf and script files below, and it doesn't seem to be able to redirect HTTP to HTTPS.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong here?

Please see below for my conf, yaml and docker files.

Nginx Conf:

server {
  listen 80;
  charset utf-8;
  root /usr/share/nginx/html;

  location / {
    proxy_set_header        Host $host:$server_port;
    proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_redirect  http:// https://;
    proxy_pass              http://portal.domain.com;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_request_buffering off;
  }
}

server {
  listen 443 ssl;

  charset utf-8;
  root /usr/share/nginx/html;

  ssl_certificate       /etc/nginx/ssl/domain_com_full.crt;
  ssl_certificate_key   /etc/nginx/ssl/domain_com.key;

  location / {
    proxy_set_header        Host $host:$server_port;
    proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_redirect  http:// https://;
    proxy_pass              http://portal.domain.com;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_request_buffering off;
  }
}

Docker file:

FROM nginx:latest
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
COPY domain_com_full.crt /etc/nginx/ssl/domain_com_full.crt
COPY domain_com.key /etc/nginx/ssl/domain_com.key
COPY dist /usr/share/nginx/html
EXPOSE 443 80

Deployment YAML (I use a script to fill in the revision part of the image):

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: domain-frontend-prd
spec:
  replicas: 2
  strategy:
    type: RollingUpdate
    rollingUpdate:
        maxSurge: 1
        maxUnavailable: 0
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      run: domain-frontend-prd
  template:

    spec:
      containers:

        ports:
        - containerPort: 80
        - containerPort: 443
        readinessProbe:
          httpGet:
            path: /
            port: 80
          initialDelaySeconds: 5
          periodSeconds: 5
          successThreshold: 1

Service YAML:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: domain-frontend-service-prd
spec:
  type: NodePort
  selector:
    run: domain-frontend-prd
  ports:

    targetPort: 443
    name: https-port
  - protocol: TCP
    port: 80
    targetPort: 80
    name: http-port

Ingress YAML (The Secret is working, as the HTTPS call also works + static IP is also there and working):

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress

    servicePort: 80
  rules:
  - host: portal.domain.com
    http:
      paths:
        - path: /
          backend:
