Hi! Today I published a guide on my website on how to expose one’s Umbrel node with BTCPay Server to the internet using a reverse SSL proxy. This will allow you to accept Bitcoin payments on your own domain. The link is: https://jorijn.com/installing-nginx-reverse-proxy-with-ssl-certificate-umbrel…

Thanks for this amazing guide ! Anywhere to donate some sats ? I’m stuck in the SSL request and when I submit sudo certbot --nginx -d btcpay.jorijn.com -m jorijn@jorijn.com --agree-tos --tls-sni-01-port 15443 --http-01-port 15080 the error is like: Failed authorization procedure. btcpay.jorijn.c…

Hey. Did you replace btcpay.jorijn.com with the correct domain name? If so, were you able to properly forward the ports in your router? If privacy is an issue, feel free to reach out to me on Telegram. My username is @jorijn over there. Donations are always very welcome, you can send me sats over…

The message basically means you have two server blocks for the same server name. This would be 1) the automated redirect…

All good, works anyway, despite the warning log. BTCPay Server online. I’ll try it a second time on another node (not umbrel), should be same straightforward, just need to adjust the ports and add UFW rules. Rest should be similar. Will report back here.

I am on step 3 and am having trouble setting up port forwarding… When I try to forward port 80 to port 15080 and port 443 to port 15443 I get the following error message: “The configured port range including the Connection Request port is not permitted” [Screen Shot 2022-02-04 at 3.53.51 PM] My…

Hello great job! Is there a consideration here to integrate this directly into Umbrel so that a simple setup is possible?
