Https to HTTP

So i have a VS on 443 and the nodes behind are on port 80. The ssl certificate is offloaded on the F5. The page is up . When user authenciates with the credentials, it gives him a page cannot displayed in http. Although the individual nodes are okay.

 

Issue with http to https redirection it seems. I have a normal VS

  • Sounds like an application issue where it is not allows authenticated connection over HTTP.

     

    Normally an application or app framework will take some HTTP header that lets it know it is a secure connection forwarded from a reverse proxy.

     

    An example of this is the WL-Proxy-SSL header for WebLogic. HTTP profile on the HTTPS Virtual Server can be used to insert WL-Proxy-SSL:true and allows the backend server to know the client connection is over HTTPS even if received on a HTTP connection.

     

  • Sourav, the error that you are getting may be due to any incorrect configuration that you have done and is not compatible with the application. Would suggest you to run tcpdump and proceed with resolving the errors as they appear.
