Self-Host n8n Like a Pro: CapRover Deploy with HTTPS, Volumes & Ollama

The complete guide to deploying n8n on your own server using CapRover: with persistent storage, HTTPS, environment variables, and Ollama connected for local AI workflows.

I walk you through everything step by step:
- Creating the app in CapRover with persistent data
- Enabling HTTPS with forced redirect and websocket support
- Configuring environment variables from the official n8n Docker docs
- Setting timezones, security flags, and the correct container port
- Mapping persistent volumes so your workflows survive redeploys
- Fixing the common EACCES permission error (NGINX 502)
- First run setup and owner account creation
- Deploying Ollama inside CapRover and connecting it to n8n for local AI

One server. Many projects. Full control.
