Basically what goes on when the user types in https://mydomain.com/lsw he gets an authentification page from the backend application. Once he enters his credentials, I notice a POST in the apache logs.
This is what the user types in: https://mydomain.com/lsw/clientele/gen/authentification.jsp he enters his credentials, then a POST appears in the log : POST /lsw/clientele/gen/authentification.jsp HTTP/1.1" 302 and in the browser I get the following: The connection has timed out http://backend2.ca/lsw/clientele/ses/pagePersonnelle.jsp?Mouftah=VXV744A9SVZMU9P the above link doesn't work because its http rather than https!! If I add the "s" manually https://backend2.ca/lsw/clientele/ses/pagePersonnelle.jsp?Mouftah=VXV744A9SVZMU9P then it works. 1)So how can I force the protocole to remain https once the client does a POST..... 2)I have noticed in many examples that people use PreserveHost on, in my case, if activate PreserveHost on then I cant even get the first page to work: Thx in advance On Wed, Apr 21, 2010 at 4:56 AM, Krist van Besien <krist.vanbes...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Tue, Apr 20, 2010 at 6:41 PM, GB GB <gbcy...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > >> #this for some reason becomes http from client perspective >> #PreserveHost on does not work with lsw, so I disabled it.... >> RewriteRule ^/lsw(.*)$ http://backend2.ca:8082/lsw$1 [NC,P,L] >> ProxyPassReverse /lsw http://backend2.ca:8082/lsw >> Redirect permanent /lsw https://mydomain.com/lsw > > First of all: Remove the "Redirect Permanent".
