I think the symlink command should be “ln -s . blog” (not ln -s blog . )

[root@02352f099824 html]# ls -al blog
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1 May 19 03:28 blog -> .
[root@02352f099824 html]#

Also I added one more entry in wp-config.php.

if (strpos($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’], ‘https’) !== false)
$_SERVER[‘HTTPS’]=’on’;

After adding this entry above the define(‘WP_HOME’, it started working.

Note: define(‘WP_SITE_URL’,’https://sub.example.com/blog’) is commented. As you pointed out, this line is not required, it seems.

Formatting of https://sub.example.com/blog also working fine now. Hopefully there are no surprise issues.

Thank you so much Bobby for your help.

Hi Bobby, I am facing the same issue when setting up SSL secured wordpress in a docker container.
OS: CentOS 7 in both main host and container. PHP 7.3

In main apache host:

Added below Proxypass entries in sub.example.com’s port 80 and 443 virtual hosts.

<Location /blog>
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto “https”
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Port “443”
ProxyPass http://10.X.X.X:8085
ProxyPassReverse http://10.X.X.X:8085
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>

inside container, wordpress is installed in /var/www/html.

.htaccess below.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

wp-config.php below

define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://sub.example.com/blog&#8217;);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://sub.example.com/blog&#8217;);

Still when I try to access https://sub.example.com/blog/, it shows the contents with formatting completely lost. http://sub.example.com/blog/ loads fine.

Both https://sub.example.com/blog/wp-admin and http://sub.example.com/blog/wp-admin gives 404 errors. Can you please suggest if anything I missed
