Cannot connect via HTTPS post confluence Upgrade - possible proxy issue

Nathan Lucy July 9, 2020

[Confluence Version 7.1.0]

I am having a constant issue while upgrading Confluence On-Premise Server, the update will complete fine but the initial login page will not load via HTTPS.

HTTP access is fine after the update and can login etc.

I have tried at least 3 times to perform the upgrade to the confluence server and have had to roll back 3 times due to HTTPS issues and the login screen timing out.

I have tried upgrading to Confluence version 7.3.5 and 7.5.0 and each time the HTTPS access times out.

 

I had a look in the confluence logs and got a hint as what the issue may be.

 

It seems like there is a timeout for a REST resource "/rest/gadgets/1.0/g/messagebundle/und/gadget.common%2Cgadget.activity.stream”.

 

The log gives a hint with this line:

2020-06-10 04:59:49,680 WARN [StartEventPublisher:thread-1] [impl.util.tomcat.DefaultTomcatConfigHelper] getHttpConnector Expected exactly one HTTP connector in Tomcat configuration, but found [Standalone:type=Connector,port=8443, Standalone:type=Connector,port=8091]

 

As far as i understands Confluence wants to call the REST resource without SSL, but is redirected to the HTTPS-Url and therefore is not able to perform the request.

 

Below is the proxy config from the server.xml file.

 

<Server port="8000" shutdown="SHUTDOWN" debug="0">
<Service name="Tomcat-Standalone">

<Connector port="8091" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443"
maxThreads="48" minSpareThreads="10"
enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" debug="0" URIEncoding="UTF-8"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"/>


<Connector port="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLSv1.2" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2" SSLEnabled="true"
URIEncoding="UTF-8" keystorePass="1234567890" keystoreFile="C:\Users\admin\confluence.jks"/>

 

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the response @repi 

I can confirm there is no proxy in use.

The Server is Windows Server 2012 R2.

Nothing in regards to the Java Keystore has been changed (i.e password, file permissions)

It will not let me post the logs here from some reason, beliw is a link to pastebin containing the logs

What I can see from the log file is that they are trying to access
confluence.aa-msp.com.au:443.
In your server.xml you specified port 8443.
Did you set the base URL incorrectly?

If this is the only ssl service on the server, you can also change it to 443 in the server.xml and the domain can be called without specifying the port, since 443 is the standard ssl / https port.

 

<Connector port="8091" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="443"
maxThreads="48" minSpareThreads="10"
enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" debug="0" URIEncoding="UTF-8"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"/>

I have tried the above configuration with no success.
I tried changing the ports and also changing protocol but still no success.
I am still getting the same error messages as shown below.

I have also re-imported the SSL certificate but the issue still persists.

What is the format of the ssl certificate?
If it is in pkcs#12 format, the following entry must be made in the server xml:
keystoreType = "PKCS12"

This only works with port 443 if no other process on the server uses ssl / https.

@Nathan Lucy 

Do you have a proxy or not.
Because you opened the section in the server.xml without proxy.
Why was connector port = "8091" chosen?
By default, this is for synchrony! Was the synchrony port changed accordingly?

Nathan Lucy July 11, 2020

@repi 

How do i determine if a proxy is in use or not?


We initially changed it from the default 8090 to 8091 when the confluence server was setup over 2 years ago and never had an issue previously upgrading..

 

How do i determine if the synchrony port was changed accordingly?

I am assuming that you are not using reverse proxy.
The port for synchrony is changed in confluence.cfg.xml.
If it is used as the standard port for synchrony, there is no entry in it.
Otherwise, <property name = "synchrony.port"> 8091 </property> should be there

 

The message given is a warning and not an error message. This warning also comes with a functioning https.

Are there any real https error messages in the log file?
Is the ssl key file  in the correct format, the password in the ssl file and in the server.xml match?
Does the ssl key file also have the appropriate file rights so that it can be read by confluence?
What operating system is the confluence running on?
