Remove from HTTPS

[Sven Frankmölle]

to change the Confluence from HTTP to HTTPS you must under /atlassian/confluence/conf

change the uncomment from Connector and set 'useHttpOnly="true"' to "false"

Additional edit under general configuration in Confluence Administration the server-base-url

That is afaik the usual way.

But I have another case - the connector is still uncommented the useHttpOnly is and was set "false" only in 'scheme="https"' is set HTTPS and the confluence is only reachable under HTTPS and forward http to https

My Question is:

To change it back from HTTPS to HTTP is it enough to remove the s from the scheme or are there any other ideas for this to undo?

Hi Sven!

The way we typically recommend setting up SSL in Confluence is by following the steps on Running Confluence over SSL or HTTPS. This basically involves importing a certificate, adding an SSL connector in server.xml, and adding a rule to redirect web requests from the non-SSL connector to the SSL connector.

If you follow this method, you should be able to allow non-SSL traffic by removing the redirect in web.xml. If you want to remove SSL connectivity altogether, you can comment out the SSL connector in server.xml.

I hope this helps!
