Thanks for sharing Anatolie, Your post encouraged me to check it out again - i followed your commands worked on with Ubuntu 24 (1 vCPU and 4GB memory) - only change was to add 4.9 (latest version) then apply SSL for the subdomain selected - here are the details in case it helps someone else: (note change sub-domain) to your own

apt-get install snap
snap install core; snap refresh core
snap install --classic certbot
certbot certonly --standalone -d
cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/subdomain/privkey.pem /etc/letsencrypt/live/subdomain/fullchain.pem /etc/wazuh-dashboard/certs/
cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub-domain/privkey.pem /etc/letsencrypt/live/sub-domain/fullchain.pem /etc/wazuh-dashboard/certs/
apt install vim -y
vim /etc/wazuh-dashboard/opensearch_dashboards.yml
chown -R wazuh-dashboard:wazuh-dashboard /etc/wazuh-dashboard/
chmod -R 500 /etc/wazuh-dashboard/certs/
chmod 440 /etc/wazuh-dashboard/certs/privkey.pem /etc/wazuh-dashboard/certs/fullchain.pem
systemctl restart wazuh-dashboard
