I want to access my jira on premise instance using https and how to do that

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist- · Accepted solution]

The most common (and easiest) way to do that is to put Jira behind a proxy server.  The proxy can do all the SSL work that needs doing, taking the load off Jira and also do it for many services, not just Jira.

It's surprisingly easy to do it with a proxy, it only takes a couple of minutes to set up.  See https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/running-jira-applications-over-ssl-or-https-938847764.html

I want specifically for Linux(Ubuntu)

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Yep, it's a lot easier to do on Linux than Windows.  Ubuntu's default installs of Apache, Nginx and Lighttpd (and other proxy web server) are all to standard and hence the doc I pointed to will work for them.  Ubuntu also does SSL to standard if you want to do it in Tomcat.  Whichever way you go, it'll be fine.

Thanks. Will try using this information.
