cannot access laravel over https in docker - angularjs

Question

We have two docker containters. one running our angular app and one running our laravel api. Each has their own docker-compose file.
On our localhost there was no issue making api calls from angular to laravel over 127.0.0.1:3000
Then I took these containers and started them up on my Ubuntu server. Still no problem making calls over 195.xxx.xxx.xx:3000
I then added a ssl certificate to the domain and all of the sudden I can not make calls to the api over port 3000
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong. I have tried different ports. If I remove the certbot stuff and call over http it all works fine again. Please please help...
For my ssl setup I followed this article and got it all setup without any real issues
Here is to docker setup for laravel
Dockerfile:

Angular Docker
#############

# base image
FROM node:alpine as build

services:
angular:
container_name: angular
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile-prod
ports:

And then finally my nginx conf for the angular side
server {
listen 80;
server_name mydomaindotcom;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html;
location / {
try_files $uri /index.html;
}
location /.well-known/acme-challenge/ {
root /var/www/certbot;
}
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name mydomaindotcom;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html;
location / {
try_files $uri /index.html
proxy_pass http://mydomaindotcom; #for demo purposes
proxy_set_header Host http://mydomaindotcom;
}
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/mydomaindotcom/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/mydomaindotcom/privkey.pem;
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;
}

Answer 1

Did you run ./init-letsencrypt.sh?
and changed some files like nginx -> angular
echo "### Starting nginx ..."
docker-compose up --force-recreate -d angular
echo
