I am trying to run a python flask app in https mode in openshift 4.7. I have my python flask app listening at port 8080 and this port is exposed through dockerFile configuration as shown below. I have redirected the https requests through the configuration in Openshift console by doing Service Port Mapping for https port 443 to pod port 8080. You can configure this by going to Openshift Console > Project > Services > Service Details and select your app. But still I can't access the service in https mode. When I try to access in https mode I get the error The application is currently not serving requests at this endpoint. It may not have been started or is still starting.
When I do normal deployment through oc cli and do not do any ssl configuration through openshift console, the app works fine in http mode. Please advise on how to run this in https mode
my app.py code is below
from flask import Flask, jsonify, request, redirect
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/<string:name>/')
def helloName(name):
print(request)
return "Hello " + name
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080, debug = True)
my Dockerfile content is as below and I am exposing port 8080 from it
