Can't add ssl to nginx

Troubleshooting
1

Please, help.
I installed mattermost and nginx and they work fine together:

  • Debian 10
  • mattermost 5.36.1
  • nginx 1.14.2
    I have an ssl certificate and I am trying to create a config file / sites-available / mattermost with ssl added. I am using the template that is specified in the official instructions, but nginx will not start. This is my file sites-available / mattermost (I changed only ip, url and path to ssl certificate):
upstream backend {
   server 194.265.145.5:443;
   keepalive 32;
}

server {
  listen 80 default_server;
  server_name   nn.abcdefg.gk;
  return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

   listen 443 ssl http2;
   server_name    nn.abcdefg.gk;

Sorry to hear your having issues, would you be able to provide the errors that you are seeing with the fail to start message?
