Docker push to artifactory gives a 403 - authentication

Question

I am trying to push a docker image to a local docker repo on artifactory
docker push myNginxlb:2222/ubuntu
This gets a 403- Access is forbidden error. Folloing is my reverse proxy configuration under /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/artifactory
upstream artifactory_lb {
server mNginxLb.mycompany.com:8081;
server mNginxLb.mycompany.com backup;
}
log_format upstreamlog '[$time_local] $remote_addr - $remote_user - $server_name to: $upstream_addr: $request upstream_response_time $upstream_response_time msec $msec request_time $request_time';
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/my-certs/myCert.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/my-certs/myserver.key;
client_max_body_size 2048M;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host $host:$server_port;
proxy_pass http://artifactory_lb;
proxy_read_timeout 90;
}
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log upstreamlog;
location /basic_status {
stub_status on;
allow all;
}
}
# Server configuration
server {
listen 2222 ssl;
server_name mNginxLb.mycompany.com;
if ($http_x_forwarded_proto = '') {
set $http_x_forwarded_proto $scheme;
}
rewrite ^/(v1|v2)/(.*) /api/docker/my_local_repo_key/$1/$2;
client_max_body_size 0;
chunked_transfer_encoding on;
location / {
proxy_read_timeout 900;
proxy_pass_header Server;
proxy_cookie_path ~*^/.* /;
proxy_pass http://artifactory_lb;
proxy_set_header X-Artifactory-Override-Base-Url $http_x_forwarded_proto://$host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $http_x_forwarded_proto;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
The access log indicate the following http requests
"GET /v2/ HTTP/1.1" 404 465 "-" "docker/1.9.1 go/go1.4.2 git-commit/a34a1d5 kernel/3.13.0-24-generic os/linux arch/amd64"
"GET /v2/ HTTP/1.1" 404 465 "-" "docker/1.9.1 go/go1.4.2 git-commit/a34a1d5 kernel/3.13.0-24-generic os/linux arch/amd64"
"GET /v1/_ping HTTP/1.1" 404 469 "-" "docker/1.9.1 go/go1.4.2 git-commit/a34a1d5 kernel/3.13.0-24-generic os/linux arch/amd64"
"PUT /v1/repositories/ubuntu/ HTTP/1.1" 403 449 "-" "docker/1.9.1 go/go1.4.2 git-commit/a34a1d5 kernel/3.13.0-24-generic os/linux arch/amd64"
Also in artifactory I have configured the docker local repo to use v2 api, what am I missing?

I fixed this by appending the intermediate certificate to the ssl certificate in context
