yeah sorry that was there at one point and disappeared during some revisioning.

Why would you need the ssl module? On Heroku SSL termination is handled by the router before nginx sees the request.

bka9 commented 9 years ago

@agriffis we are using the buildpack to deploy nginx to heroku as a proxy to other services that are on secure endpoints. In order to facilitate this the nginx binary that runs on heroku must be compiled with the ssl module.

@bka9 Okay, thanks!
