Dear all,

I want to configure access to openstack identity API via https, I installed a VM with Nginx which receives request via https and sends to the identity API via http.

When I enter the Nginx vm ip address (https://10.197.40.50) on my web browser and when I enter the identity API address (http://10.197.48.201:5000/v2.0) on my web browser, I get the same json results.

Also with "export OS_AUTH_URL=http://10.197.48.201:5000/v2.0" in the openstack RC file, I am able to source the file and launch commands like "nova list" from my  cli.

But when I replace: "export OS_AUTH_URL=http://10.197.48.201:5000/v2.0" in the openstack RC file with "export OS_AUTH_URL=https://10.197.40.50 and I try thesame "nova list" command; I get the following error:

I also tried specifying the parameter export OS_INSECURE="true" in the openstack RC file but it doesn't make a difference and it results in the same error.

Please help! I'm really stuck. Thank you
