http: -- https: without adding the port numbers

Robyn Harcott

I'm trying to set up our server to https:// and it works if you type in the https:  however, if I use sub.server.com with the redirect in place, it works on the server but not outside the server.  It used to before I upgraded and I'm not sure what I'm missing.

It also returns https://sub.server.com:8443 -- how do I get it to redirect and leave off the port #?

Dear @Robyn Harcott,

you have three posibilities:

1. Install a proxy like apache or nginx in front of Confluence(tomcat), that will terminate the SSL connection (listening on port 443) and readirect the traffic to 8090 [recommended]
2. Configure the Tomcat of Confluence to listen on port 443 instead 8443. [good]
3. Install a proxy in front of Confluence listening on 443 forwarding traffic to 8443. SSL termination is done by Confluence(tomcat) [ok]

So long

Thomas
