SSL not working

[Gonz11]

Hi! I am wondering what I am doing wrong.
I got dicebear's avatars working but I can't open them via SSL encryption. I can only view the images via http and not https. What do I need to do to allow dicebear to display in those ports?

This link above works for acquire an image but the same link with https does not work

The application itself does not provide an SSL certificate. To establish an encrypted connection, you need a proxy that provides an SSL certificate.

For example: nginx, apache, caddy, haproxy

I did install nginx but then removed it after getting a SSL certificate, should I have kept it on?

[Gonz11]

Allow me to clarify, I do have an SSL certificate, I got it after installing nginx and then removing nginx after acquiring the SSL certificate.
When I install both nginx and dicebear, it collides with the ports that dicebear took. When I have both installed, the avatars stop working.

Of course, you must not run DiceBear on the same port as nginx. This cannot work.

Just leave DiceBear on port 3000 and Nginx can then point both port 80 and 443 to port 3000 via a proxy.
