Answer:

You are missing the "ssl on;" directive. You can either specify it with

A) Adding ssl after 443:
server {
listen 443 ssl;

or

B) add a new line insider server {} with ssl on;

server {
listen 443;
ssl on;

Note that only solution (B) is compatible with npm module nginx-conf 1.X (I didnt try 2.X).

Understanding:

This message "(XXX: Connection reset by peer) while reading upstream" appears when the server backend initiates the disconnect. It is not the client that failed. Usually the server will have responded to the request with a more specific error message to help debug. In my case the response which could be viewed with Google Chrome Network Inspector was :

HTTP 400 Bad Request
"{"code":"BadRequest","message":"maxFileSize exceeded, received 209763252 bytes of file data"}"

Solution:

change
http_server.use(restify.plugins.bodyParser();
to
http_server.use(restify.plugins.bodyParser({maxFileSize: 5 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024})); // 5 GB
