- Platform information:
  - Hardware: HP Proliant
  - OS: CentOS Linux 7
  - Java Runtime Environment: openjdk version “1.8.0\_181”
  - openHAB version: latest as of today

The first thing I need to mention is that I run the server in a VestaCP subdomain.  
The nginx config file is as follows:

```auto
server {
    listen	192.168.x.x:443;
    server_name home.psmedia.ro www.home.psmedia.ro;
    ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /home/admin/conf/web/ssl.home.psmedia.ro.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /home/admin/conf/web/ssl.home.psmedia.ro.key;
    error_log /var/log/httpd/domains/home.psmedia.ro.error.log error;

    location /css {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/css;
    }
    location /js {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/js;
    }
    location /img {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/img;
    }
    location /bootstrap {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/bootstrap;
    }
    location /font-icons {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/font-icons;
    }
    location /fonts {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/fonts;
    }
    location /js-plugin {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/js-plugin;
    }
    location /downloads {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/openhab-cloud/public/downloads;
    }

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
        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 https;
    }

    location /error/ {
        alias /home/admin/web/home.psmedia.ro/document_errors/;
    }

location @fallback {
        proxy_pass	https://192.168.0.4:8443;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.svn/ {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.git/ {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.hg/ {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.bzr/ {return 404;}

    include /home/admin/conf/web/snginx.home.psmedia.ro.conf*;
}

```

- Issue of the topic: I have installed a fresh instance of the openhab cloud server according to this topic:  
[Myopenhab](https://community.openhab.org/t/setup-your-own-openhab-cloud-myopenhab-server-instance/24716)  
When starting the server all seems well, the output is as follows:

```auto

```

But when I visit the URL the server is displaying basic authentication pop-up instead of index.

Please help me out.

Regards!

Is it because you are proxying port 8443 on your openhab controller instead of port 3000 on your localhost server where nodejs is installed.
