To use Blockscout explorer follow this repo: https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout-terraform​
On the bootnode for blockscout, add/replace the following sections in the node.toml file. Restart poa-parity.service

    [rpc]
2
    apis = ["web3","eth","net", "parity", "traces"]
3
    processing_threads = 2
4
    server_threads = 2

Also, add the following section into the /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf file to enable websockets.
1
    location /ws {
2
      proxy_set_header Host localhost:8546;
3
      proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
4
      proxy_set_header Content-Type application/json;
5
      #add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*";
6
      #add_header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept";

      if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') {

When configuring blockscout, you need to assign a public domain name to this node (make sure 443 port is open), e.g. https://blockscout-node-trace-ws.nowhere and use it for blockscout configuration, along with wss://blockscout-node-trace-ws.nowhere/ws for web-sockets.
