[Solved] ssl received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length centos

 Issue:- 

Issue occured when i tried to create the reverse proxy in the nginx

upstream dashboard {
    server 172.31.4.205:30545;
}

server {
    listen 443;
    listen [::]:443;

    ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/server.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/server.key;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host:$server_port;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_pass https://dashboard;
    }
}
   

Error:- 

ssl received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length centos

Cause:-

missing ssl on; directive.

Resolution:-

The issue was occuring because the ssl on; directive was missing in the configuration , even though nginx says that the ssl on; is not required and gives a warning still i got the error till i not included the ssl on; in the configuration.

upstream dashboard {
    server 172.31.4.205:30545;
}

server {
    listen 443;
    listen [::]:443;

    ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/server.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/server.key;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host:$server_port;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_pass https://dashboard;
    }
}
