Triying to setup ssl for laravel reverb using nginx on ubuntu

Laravel reverb docs

/etc/supervisor/conf.d/websockets.conf

[program:websockets-l11]
command=/usr/bin/php /var/www/l11/artisan reverb:start
numprocs=1
autostart=true
autorestart=true

Nginx

    root /var/www/l11/public;
    add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
    add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
    index index.php;
    server_name l11.example.com;
    charset utf-8;

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
location = /robots.txt  { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
error_page 404 /index.php;

location ~ \.php$ {

    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php8.3-fpm.sock;
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;

It took me a while but I managed to get it working, here are some very important things that can prevent Reverb from working on a production server:

  1. The port 8080 (or any other port you want to use) must be open an accessible, you can do this by configuring your firewall when creating the server at your hosting provider. To verify if it is indeed open, you must start the reverb server with php artisan reverb:start --debug, then head over to https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and enter the server IP address and port you want to check.

  2. You must ensure that the .env variables related to Reverb are correctly set, specially BROADCAST_CONNECTION which must be always set to reverb, it is default set to log. And also, ensure that REVERB_HOST is set to your domain name or server IP.

  3. After you make any changes to the .env file, you must rebuild your node packages with npm run build.
