Description
I built a WebId（https://eureka.name/profile/card#me ) using the Solid Server and Nginx as reverse proxy（ref solution 4：https://github.com/solid/node-solid-server/wiki/Running-Solid-behind-a-reverse-proxy）, but if I Log in with Certificate（WebId-TLS）, I always get a response of "504 Gateway Time-out" from Nginx. I guess the SSL certificate cannot reach the Solid Server or something else wrong, how to set Nginx, or should I modify some settings in config.json to run solid server, or solid server just have this issue?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the WebId-TLS login through Nginx and reviewing the reverse-proxy configuration from wiki solution 4 alongside Solid's config.json. Determine whether the certificate reaches the Solid Server and identify why Nginx returns a 504; done means certificate login works successfully through the proxy.
