Context

I have a dockerized QGIS server project running and serving tiles through an OGC WMTS.

E.g. this URL:

http://{baseurl}/?SERVICE=WMTS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetTile&LAYER={my_custom_layer}&STYLE=default&TileMatrixSet=EPSG:3857&TileMatrix=22&TileRow=1079050&TileCol=2274423&format=image/png

shows me a tile in Firefox:

WMTS tile sample

This works great.

But this is an HTTP request and I need to enable HTTPS.

If I query the same tile using HTTPS instead of HTTP, I have to wait forever, nothing happens, and the server stdout doesn't display any incoming requests.

Question

How could I enable HTTPS in my QGIS server?
I didn't find any information about it, either here or there.

Environment

The aforementioned docker image hosted on a Ubuntu 18.04 server machine.
Which gives:

# qgis --version
QGIS 3.10.6-A Coruña 'A Coruña' (ec80021f49)

  • Looks like a folder needs to be write-able according to this info (at the bottom) issues.qgis.org/issues/16462

  • Thanks. But it's not clear to me where should I add this /srv/qgis/.qgis2 folder; inside the docker container or on the machine hosting that container? And in which file should I append the line FcgidInitialEnv HOME "/srv/qgis"? (I'm not a web server expert).

Same issue,

I guess that configuring nginx/apache for ssl and isolate gqis ports inside the docker network may be a solution.
