Current Behavior
I get the error in Security & setup warnings: Your web server is not properly set up to resolve .well-known URLs, failed on: /.well-known/webfinger
Expected Behavior
To not see the error.
Steps To Reproduce
setup traefik/npm to proxy the requests with https
configure overwrite.cli.url with https://your-domain
configure overwriteprotocol with https
configure overwritehost with your-domain
curl -i https://your-domain/.well-known/webfinger

The problem is that the nginx config redirects to http location: http://your-domain/index.php/.well-known/webfinger.
What I did to fix the issue, i added https in nginx, don't know if this is the best solution.
location ^~ /.well-known {
# The rules in this block are an adaptation of the rules
# in `.htaccess` that concern `/.well-known`.
location = /.well-known/carddav { return 301 https://$http_host/remote.php/dav/; }
location = /.well-known/caldav { return 301 https://$http_host/remote.php/dav/; }
location /.well-known/acme-challenge { try_files $uri $uri/ =404; }
location /.well-known/pki-validation { try_files $uri $uri/ =404; }
# Let Nextcloud's API for `/.well-known` URIs handle all other
# requests by passing them to the front-end controller.
return 301 https://$http_host/index.php$request_uri;
}
The result, no errors.
