===== Install lighttpd and openssl =====
<code>
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install lighttpd
sudo apt-get install openssl
</code>
===== Generate certificate =====
<code>
sudo mkdir /etc/lighttpd/certs
sudo openssl req -new -x509 -keyout /etc/lighttpd/certs/lighttpd.pem -out /etc/lighttpd/certs/lighttpd.pem -days 365 -nodes
sudo chmod 400 /etc/lighttpd/certs/lighttpd.pem
</code>
===== Configure lighthttpd =====
Edit the lighttpd.conf file: <code>sudo nano /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf</code>
In server.modules section add a new line: <code>"mod_proxy",</code>
At the end of the file add the complete block:
<code>$SERVER["socket"] == "0.0.0.0:5557" {
     proxy.server  = ( "" =>
        (( "host" => "0.0.0.0", "port" => 8765 ))
    )
    ssl.engine = "enable"
    ssl.pemfile = "/etc/lighttpd/certs/lighttpd.pem"
}</code>

<code>sudo service lighttpd restart</code>
Check if lighttpd restarted correctly: <code>sudo journalctl -xn
</code>
