redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS - Passenger Standalone with AWS - Elastic Load Balancer

[Vishal Sadriya]

I am using Passenger Standalone with AWS  load balancer . I want to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS. I found this article https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/redirect-http-https-elb/ 

for redirect http request to https . but it is only for nginx config.  I followed this https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/config/standalone/intro.html#nginx-configuration-template tutorial and added custom file for nginx.conf.erb 

`     <% if $http_x_forwarded_proto != "https" %>

          rewrite ^(.*)$ https://example.com permanent;

        <% end %>` 

and this code under the` server { ` but its not working and going to infinte loop that's why instance terminate itself. Tried all the tutorials but not working yet.
