I have a similar issue; Locally with http, ws works perfectly;
In https, I receive connection interrupted
routing.py
# chat/routing.py
from django.urls import re_path
from . import consumers
websocket_urlpatterns = [
re_path(r"ws/chat/(?P<room_name>\w+)/$", consumers.ChatConsumer.as_asgi()),
]
The chat is managed via:
urlpatterns = [
path("me", views.user_chats, name="user_chats"),
path("<int:room_id>", views.room, name="room"),
path("<int:room_id>/upload", views.upload_file, name="upload_file"),
]
The chat are server via https://taxcoder.cz/chat/2
The ngnix configuration is:
server {
listen 80;
server_name app.taxcoder.cz www.app.taxcoder.cz;
# Redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name app.taxcoder.cz www.app.taxcoder.cz;
# SSL certificate files
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/app.taxcoder.cz/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/app.taxcoder.cz/privkey.pem;

}

}
# Static files configuration
location /static/ {
alias /app/static/; # Adjust the alias to your static file location
}
}
Locally, it works, while when being in https, I receive the error to being closed
