Struggling to get JIRA to work with IIS, HTTPS and URL Rewrite

[Richard]

New clean install of JIRA on a windows box (Server 2008R2), running IIS with other websites.  I want my URL to be https://jira.mydomain.com, so I am using IIS URL Rewrite to http://www.mydomain.com:8081, with a SAN certificate on the IIS server.

I can access both URLs from my server.

If I connect to https://jira.mydomain.com, all seems to be fine and passes the health checks until I try to do something, such as go to the scrum board or try to create an issue:

Create: either "The JIRA server could not be contacted. This may be a temporary glitch or the server may be down." or "Project: 10000" and "Issue Type: 10100"

Scrum Board: "Exception: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'init' of undefined"

All works fine on http://www.mydomain.com:8081 (except it tells me the gadget feed is set up wrong)

My server.xml file has the following in it:

<Connector acceptCount="100" bindOnInit="false" connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" enableLookups="false" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" port="8081" protocol="HTTP/1.1" proxyName="jira.mydomain.com" proxyPort="443" redirectPort="8443" scheme="https" useBodyEncodingForURI="true"/>

My URL Rewrite rules are:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<urlCompression doStaticCompression="false" doDynamicCompression="false" dynamicCompressionBeforeCache="false" />
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Divert to 8081" enabled="true" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="(.*)" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://www.mydomain.com:8081/{R:1}" logRewrittenUrl="false" />
</rule>
</rules>
<outboundRules>
<rule name="ReverseProxyOutboundRule1" preCondition="ResponseIsHtml1">
<match filterByTags="A, Form, Img" pattern="^http(s)?://(.*).mydomain.com:8081/(.*)" />
<action type="Rewrite" value="https://jira.mydomain.com/{R:3}" />
</rule>
<preConditions>
<preCondition name="ResponseIsHtml1">
<add input="{RESPONSE_CONTENT_TYPE}" pattern="^text/html" />
</preCondition>
</preConditions>
</outboundRules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>

Any advice how I can get this to work?

Thanks
