Research direction

Start by reviewing the reproduction steps, the linked issue 668 guidance, and the cited Cockpit proxy guide. Reproduce the 502 and SSL connection errors on Fedora Server 40 with podman-compose 1.2.0 and Podman 5.2.3, then inspect the shown /etc/cockpit/cockpit.conf settings. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and documenting a working encrypted Cockpit proxy configuration.
