Having some difficulties with getting SSL setup on our Windows instance of Confluence using Letsencrypt. Has anyone run through this before using letsencrypt? Would appreciate any help or guidance!
Are you using IIS as a reverse proxy and doing the SSL termination at IIS or are you doing the SSL termination with Tomcat?
We’re utilizing Tomcat Davin
I think you are going to have the best success if you set it up to reverse proxy through IIS. We are on Windows in our organization as well and we saw about 15%-20% performance boost when we switched where we terminate the SSL connection. I think IIS is just better about handling SSL than Tomcat is. Plus there is lots of information on how to setup Let's Encrypt with IIS. I don't really have any gems for you with regards to Tomcat, but maybe consider using IIS for that. It's actually pretty easy to setup and it took me less than an hour to do.
That’s interesting, I think I’m going to look at going that route, didn’t even think about doing it that way. You didn’t happen to follow https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/proxying-atlassian-server-applications-with-microsoft-internet-information-services-iis-833931378.html did you?
