Reverse Proxy
If you have a reverse proxy for serving HTTPS that uses Tomcat's HTTP port, you will also need to set up a RemoteIPValve in your server.xml in order for Tomcat to rewrite links with HTTPS.
To do this you will first need to make sure the X-Forwarded-Proto header is set in your server config (example with Apache):
No Format |
---|
<VirtualHost *:443>
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https"
ServerName dummy-host.example.com
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/localhost.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/localhost.key
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/
DocumentRoot "/opt/fedora/apache-tomcat-8.5.66/webapps/fcrepo-webapp"
</VirtualHost>
|
Then you will need to add a Valve to the localhost Engine in Tomcat's server.xml:
No Format |
---|
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteIpValve"
protocolHeader="x-forwarded-proto" /> |
