Trying to setup https with existing certbot SSL certificate

[themuffinman22]

Hey all,

I'm sorry if this was asked before but I couldn't find any relevant answers. In general, I know the best way to set up secured remote access is with a reverse proxy like nginx or tailscale, but I want to use self-provided SSL because I already have them set up for other uses, and also I want to use Jellyfin with clients I can't setup the reverse proxy client on. So, I want to setup Jellyfin to use my own certification, and I managed to do it with Emby.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, so is there a detailed guide to set up self-hosted SSL certificates? I can't access the https page even on local.

I have certbot running with auto-renew and openssl converting it to a pfx certificate. other then setting the relevant ports (I use 8921 so not to conflict with emby running as backup to Jellyfin), what do I need to set up?

Here are my networking settings:

(can I still access the server on http if require https is checked? until I manage to make this work 100% I don't want to turn it on as to not lose access to the server)

Thanks in advance!

Can you attach the image here? I may be having issues on my end, but imgur keeps telling me it's overloaded.

To answer your second question: likely not. Also, with a reverse proxy like nginx you don't need a client...I use nginx via SWAG to serve out to friends without any SSL config inside Jellyfin.
