I’m having trouble getting Duplicati to reach my Minio server. I set up an NGINX reverse proxy VM which forwards to the minio VM. I set up Let’s Encrypt on NGINX. I can access Minio through the appropriate subdomain using HTTPS in the web browser.
However, Duplicati throws up two different error messages, depending on how I type in the URL. If I use “url.url”, I get “Failed to connect: The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.” This happens whether or not s3-ext-forcepathstyle or “use-ssl” are selected.
If I instead use “https://url.url”, I get Failed to connect: A WebException with status NameResolutionFailure was thrown.” This happens whether or not s3-ext-forcepathstyle or “use-ssl” are selected.
If nobody here has an answer, you might try putting that error message in a search engine for some ideas (although some people have found that path difficult too). It probably comes from third-party library code.
Although I don’t have anything that talks S3, I did use the Duplicati GUI to play with naming, then went into Commandline in the GUI to see what had been made. Here are examples from a predefined server and a custom one, putting url.url in the customer server entry field.
For those potentially looking for more detail, the active health check with “health_check” is only supported by paid commercial nginx installations, which is likely why it was failing.
