Error loading Lightning Terminal GUI about raspibolt

The point of using an upstream configuration for LiT's web interface is to bypass its own self-signed certificate and use the self-signed certificate created at the very beginning of the guide (section: Prepare NGINX reverse proxy).

If you want to use the self-signed certificate created at the beginning of the guide you will need to serve LiT's web GUI with TLS disabled. You can do that with the option insecure-httplisten= in lit.conf.

Example: insecure-httplisten=127.0.0.1:8442

Once you serve LiT's web GUI on port 8442 then you can use the upstream configuration:

upstream litd {
  server 127.0.0.1:8442;
}
server {
  listen 8444 ssl;
  proxy_pass litd;
}

Restart NGINX, restart litd and visit LiT's web GUI page. You will notice that the self-signed certificate being used now is the one you created at the beginning of the guide.

Removing "ssl" from the upstream configuration in NGINX like you did is not a fix because you'll notice that the certificate used is LiT's own self-signed certificate. That upstream configuration is an additional step which is unnecessary as it's basically the equivalent of reaching LiT's web interface on port 8443 with the only difference that you point to port 8444 first.
