I am trying to add SSL to my EC2 instance that hosts my API's in a node.js server by:
1) Provisioning a certificate from Certificate Manager 2) Putting Cloudfront in front of my EC2 instance 3) Adding record set in Route53
Before I actually added the record set in Route 53, I made a GET request via postman to my health check api
GET cloudfrontdistro.cloudfront.net/health
And the response was a 502 with the message
We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a
configuration error. Try again later, or contact the app or website owner.
Relevant details about my Cloudfront distro:
- I used a Custom SSL Cert - the one that I got from ACM)
- TLSv1.2_2018 security policy
- Origin domain name is
ec2-xx-xxx-xxx-xxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com - Minimum origin SSL protocol is TLSv1
- Origin protocol policy is HTTPS Only
- HTTP Port 80
- HTTPS Port 443
- Viewer Protocol Policy is Redirect HTTP to HTTPS
- Allowed HTTP Methods are GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, PUT, POST, PATCH, DELETE
Any help would greatly be appreciated! TIA!
