My setup is nothing special, just the opposite - common scenario where one use real webserver (nginx) on the front-end and acting as reverse-proxy serving static content and dispatching requests for dynamic content to the wsgi server (gunicorn) listening on 127.0.0.1:localport. Actually, the setup is pretty much the same as well-known webfaction hosting. > So, even if your site is reachable from the outside world on the port > 443, the web2py code will see those request coming to the 80 port if > you configured gunicorn to listen on that one.... it's nginx that is > "translating" whatever comes through 443 to the 80 of gunicorn > (because of your configuration). My site is nothing else than vanilla web2py installation and default (welcome) application is available from the outside world on the port 80. >From where do you conclude that I configured gunicorn to listen on port 80?

I admit I'm not very familiar with nginx (after Apache, mostly used lighty, cherokee and hiawatha for PHP sites) and just modified ISP's recipe, but from where I can see that nging is 'doing the translation between 443 and 80' ?
