Reverse proxy self signed certificate

[Alex Shmakov]

Hi everyone
I've configured JIRA to use self-signed certificate several days ago, i used jira configuration tool for this.
So now i want to configure reverse proxy using apache, to do that i followed steps in this article

https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/proxying-atlassian-server-applications-with-apache-http-server-mod_proxy_http-806032611.html

But i got a problem now, my JIRA server is working over HTTPS using it's own cert, i've tried to switch back to HTTP, but after that i cant log in to jira(just seeng log in screen after entering credentials)and jira is currently working over HTTPS

Any ideas?

Just to confirm, when you try to login to Jira over HTTP, the login screen does not show you a login failed, it just takes you back to the login screen, correct?

You should be able to access Jira over more than one connector at a time.

I've seen instances where this can happen because of a cookie problem in the browser.  In which case, clearing the cookies or trying an incognito/private mode might help.

But if that doesn't help, then I'd want to know more about the specific <connector> tags you have in the $JIRAINSTALL/conf/server.xml file.  These govern how the tomcat instance will listen for requests here.   Sometimes there are redirect aspects here where there might be a listener on port 8080, but that traffic is trying to be redirected to another port like 8443
