Confluence Apache2 Proxy Issue

Cang Ta

Hello,

I am trying to configure Confluence through an Apache Proxy, using this guide but I have some issues.

In server.xml if I use the direct HTTPS connector as:

<Connector port="8090" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443"
           maxThreads="48" minSpareThreads="10"
           enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" debug="0" URIEncoding="UTF-8"
           protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
           scheme="http" proxyName="team.domain.com" proxyPort="80"/>

And apache2 virtual host config:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName team.domain.com

  ProxyRequests Off
  ProxyPreserveHost On

  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/synchrony
  RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://team.domain.com:8090/$1 [P]

  <Proxy *>
    Require all granted
  </Proxy>

  ProxyPass /synchrony http://team.domain.com:8091/synchrony

  <Location /synchrony>
    Require all granted
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:UPGRADE} ^WebSocket$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:CONNECTION} Upgrade$ [NC]
    RewriteRule .* ws://team.domain.com:8091%{REQUEST_URI} [P]
  </Location>

  ProxyPass / http://team.domain.com:8090
  ProxyPassReverse / http://team.domain.com:8090

  <Location />
    Require all granted
  </Location>
</VirtualHost>

But whenever I go to http://team.domain.com always got redirect to https://domain.com.

I'm using DigitalOcean WordPress OneClick VPS.

Here is my apache2 `000-default.conf` default virtual hosts config:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
  DocumentRoot /var/www/html

  <Directory /var/www/html/>
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
  </Directory>

  ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
  CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =domain.com [OR]
  RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =www.domain.com
  RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

Could anyone please help. 

Thank you so much.

Hi Cang

 

looks like the Rewrite rule in the default config is execute

RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]

Are you running any other services using https?

If yes, than an option could be be to run confluence in a different context and have a dedicated rewrite rule for that.

 

Cheers

Kurt
