<p>I have deployed kops k8s in AWS, everything in the same namespace.</p>

<p>nginx ingress controller route traffic to https backends (wordpress apps).</p>

<p>I'm able to reach the website, but unfortunately for every 10~ calls only 1 call get http 200. all the other 9 get 404 nginx not found.
tried to search everywhere but no luck :(</p>

<p>My configuration:
DNS -> AWS NLB -> 2 Nodes</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Apparently changing the annotation nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-passthrough from "True" to "False" solved it. </p>

<p>Probably has to do something with ssl termination in NGINX and not in the apache.</p>
