<p>I'm having trouble getting an nginx-ingress controller to work on an Azure Kubernetes Service; it's currently returning 502 Bad Gateway each time I try to hit some Web APIs exposed as Services.
Because I must use an existing certificate, I followed <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/ingress-own-tls" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/ingress-own-tls</a> to set up the controller and have followed <a href="https://www.markbrilman.nl/2011/08/howto-convert-a-pfx-to-a-seperate-key-crt-file/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.markbrilman.nl/2011/08/howto-convert-a-pfx-to-a-seperate-key-crt-file/</a> to generate a cert and key from a PFX (how the certificate was exported from an Azure Key Vault). I created the secret "aks-ingress-tls" using the certificate including the intermediate and root ceritficates and the decrypted key file.
I have a YAML file to create a deployment, a service to expose it, and an ingress to route to it. Applying this YAML I can access the services via their IP addresses in HTTP, but using HTTPS to the Ingress Controller's EXTERNAL_IP always gives the 502 error.
My YAML File (redacted):</p>

<p>I added a record to my hosts file (I'm on Windows so can't use curl's --resolve) to map [REDACTED].co.uk to the ingress controller's EXTERNAL_IP so I can try accessing it. That's when I get the errors.
A <code>curl -v https://[REDACTED].co.uk</code> gives this: </p>

<pre><code>VERBOSE: GET https://[REDACTED].co.uk/ with 0-byte payload
curl : The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel.

<p>Can anyone point me to what I need to look at or do to get this working now?</p>

MrShoes
<p>For your issue, the ingress uses the HTTPS protocol with the port 443, so you do not need to expose the port 443 for your container. Just expose the port that which your application listens to. </p>

<p>For you, it means you just expose the port 80 for your container and the service. You also need to remove the annotation <code>nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol: "HTTPS"</code> and change the servicePort value into 80.</p>

<p>Note: Add the DNS name into the certificate is also important.</p>
