Hi, I have been using https with Seam for a while not and in our environment we have http and https setup at the load balancer level.
An hrrp request comes to the load balancer. The load balancer internally forwards requests to tomcats that only have http setup. We do this to avoid setting up https and related certificates for every tomcat in our pools. Each tomcat in the pool is setup on a different port only accessible internally. After looking at the Seam documentation and org.jboss.seam.navigation.pages file. It seems that if a page view-id is marked with scheme=https, the framework appends port info. If no httpsport is defined, it retrieves the server instance port and appends that.(see code at end of this post) In our case, this could would return internal tomcat port, not the externally accessible port (no port or port 80). this will cause a redirect to the incorrect port. eg. external url: http://mysite.com and https://mysite.com two tomcats in pool at http://tomcats.com:123 and http://tomcats.com:124 in pages.xml or somewhere else, would it be possible to indicate scheme https for view-ids but not append ":PORT"? eg redirection http://mysite.com to https:://mysite.com with no appended port info. The code i looked at is below.
