Disabling Document Server Access Authentication
Next, disable access authentication for Document Server, which by default rejects unauthenticated requests (i.e., self-signed HTTPS requests).

I am now running Document Server with Docker, using the docker exec command to log into the container.

There seems to be only the nano editor in the container, but that’s enough.

Open /etc/onlyoffice/documentserver/default.json, go down and find the rejectUnauthorized field and change its value to false.

Restart the container.
Modify default.json

[email protected]:/var/log/onlyoffice/documentserver/converter# cd /etc/onlyoffice/
[email protected]:/etc/onlyoffice# ls
documentserver  documentserver-example
[email protected]:/etc/onlyoffice# cd documentserver
[email protected]:/etc/onlyoffice/documentserver# ls
default.json              local.json  production-linux.json

development-windows.json  nginx
[email protected]:/etc/onlyoffice/documentserver# pwd
/etc/onlyoffice/documentserver
[email protected]:/etc/onlyoffice/documentserver#

Modify as follows: “rejectunauthorized”: false

                     "requestDefaults": {
                                "headers": {
                                        "User-Agent": "Node.js/6.13",
                                        "Connection": "Keep-Alive"
                                },
                                "gzip": true,
                                "rejectUnauthorized": false
                        },
