I this topic we will explain how to configure nginx for localhost odoo server by steps, but before that you need to install nginx and running odoo server and then follow the steps 

First : go to /etc/nginx/enable-sites and add new configuration file by the name odoo14.localhost which will configure your nginx for odoo local server

Second : open the file /etc/hosts and add the localhost (127.0.0.1) to the file as bellow 

Third : add the ssl certification by going to etc/ssl and create new folder by name nginx and inside it run the command bellow 

openssl req -x509 -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout odoo.key -days 9999 -out odoo.crt

odoo14.localhost file will be as

#odoo server
  upstream odoo {
   server 127.0.0.1:8069;
  }
  upstream odoochat {
   server 127.0.0.1:8072;
  }
  # http -> https
  server {
     listen 80;
     #server_name odoo.mycompany.com;
     rewrite ^(.*) https://$host$1 permanent;
    }
  server {
   listen 443;
   #server_name odoo.mycompany.com;

   error_log /var/log/nginx/odoo.error.log;
   # Redirect longpoll requests to odoo longpolling port
   location /longpolling {
   proxy_pass http://odoochat;
   }
   # Redirect requests to odoo backend server
   location / {

     proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8069;
   # common gzip
   gzip_types text/css text/less text/plain text/xml application/xml application/json application/javascript ;
}
}

 

The hosts file will be as

127.0.0.1    localhost
127.0.1.1    ahmed-HP-EliteBook-8460p
172.0.0.1       localhost.odoo

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

 

The odoo configuration file will be as 

[options]
; This is the password that allows database operations:
admin_passwd = Ahmmar
db_host = False
db_port = 5432
db_name = False
db_user = ahmed
xmlrpc_port = 8069
longpolling_port = 8072
db_password = False
addons_path = /home/ahmed/Desktop/Odoo_14/addons, /home/ahmed/Desktop/Odoo_14/addons/custom_addons
proxy_mode = True
dbfilter = ^%h$
logfile = /var/log/odoo14/odoo14-service.log

###

Here are some important commands

nginx -t >> to test if the nginx conf files are okay

systemctl restart nginx.service >> to restart nginx 

sudo su -- >> to login as root user

*NOTE

after doing the above configuration you have to restart the odoo server and go to your browser and open https://localhost which will open the creation page for new database
