AWS EBS application timing out when changed to a single instance environment

I have a web application running on Elastic Beanstalk in load balanced environment however when I changed the configuration to a "single instance" environment the application returns a 408 Request Timeout with every https browser request to the server (custom domain).

The environment health in my AWS console shows everything is running okay so I am baffled by what could be causing the problem. When I change the configuration back to 'load balanced' everything works fine again.

Since you are using HTTPS with custom domain, when you switch to a single instance, the HTTPS functionality is lost. To make HTTPS work on a single instance, you need to obtained new SSL certificate (AWS ACM can't be used), and deploy it on your instance though re-configured Nginx:
