Greetings. I am having a problem with the Apache Proxy directives. Here is my setup:
CLIENT <--> Apache SSL <--> http proxy to tomcat server A client comes in with an https:// request. Apache receives that request and proxies the connection to our backend tomcat server via http. The tomcat server sends back data. Apache then sends that tomcat data back to the client over the SSL connection. This part works perfectly. However, when the tomcat server sends a 302 redirect (we're using j_security_check), Apache is sending that redirect back to the client as HTTP and not HTTPS, therefore triggering the CLIENT IE6/7 browser to popup "Warning, you are about to enter an unsecure site...". Has anyone else experienced this, or have ideas why the HTTPS connection is being broken? *Another note, when I switch to using a JkMount with worker/properties/ajp, and do not use ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse/http, there is no problem. Here are our configs: httpd-ssl.conf -------------- <VirtualHost 172.27.16.116:443> DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/MYSITE" ServerName www.MYSITE.com:443 ...SSL STUFF...
