904	Servername without semi-colon won't throw an error when used with SSL	buzzy.xtra@…		"Adding the following won't throw an error:

(note that server_name doesn't have the semi-colon)
server	{
	listen 443;
	server_name	xxx.yyy.zzz

	ssl on; 
	ssl_certificate		/example.crt;
	ssl_certificate_key	/example.key; 
	ssl_session_timeout	5m; 

	location /	{
			proxy_pass http://www.example.com;
			}
	}

the above example will start nginx only the server block won't work.
Without the SSL part it will give you an error as expected:

server	{
	listen 443;
	server_name	xxx.yyy.zzz

	location /	{
			proxy_pass http://www.example.com;
			}
	}
