Scalix Forums

Hi,

after i tried to setup SSL i get the following error when i restart apache2:



I searched for a long time in the forum but didn't find any help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Elmar!

Did you use the steps mentioned at:
http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... _use_https

Make sure that you have not just mod_proxy but also mod_rewrite, also, what OS are you
using?

Thanks,

Hi Elmar!

I would suggest you to use the wiki page I mentioned in my last post.

Also, two questions:

(1) Does https work?

(2) Is Apache loading mod_rewrite at startup? Look for the APACHE_MODULES line in your config (for SLES 9 it's at /etc/sysconfig/apache2, yours may vary) and see if "rewrite" is included.

Thanks,

Hi Subir,

first i want to say that the error "ProxyPass" no longer exists after i added proxy to APACHE_MODULES!

Now i did as you mentioned.

I also did the following:

I created a certificate, copied vhost-ssl.template to vhost.conf in /etc/apache2/vhost.d and set APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS="SSL".

Then i restarted the Server so all components are restarted.

Testing https://server-name ist ok an gives me the Apache-test-page. Also the rewrite works fine.

But when i type in https://server-name/webmail or sac i get the error "404 Object not found"

I guess there is something wrong with tomcat, isn't it?

UPDATE:

I found something in the apache-log:


I thing it is the point. Apache doesn't forward the request to Tomcat.

What is wrong?

Hi Elmar!

What happens when you type http://server-name/webmail, is the webmail page opening
directly without https redirect, or the browser tries to find the webmail on secure server?
If so, we are on the right track?

[Edit]
Look at the following pages for Apache and Tomcat integrations:
http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... Tos/Tomcat
http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... Tos/Apache
http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?ti ... figuration

Good morning Subir,

yes it's right. The browser tries to connect to secure Port. Redirect is working well, but there is still "404 Object not found" (see last post).

Thanks,
Elmar

[Edit]
I had a look at the howto's, but i can't find anything regarding my Problem.

Hi Subir,

i got the right thread!!

At http://www.scalix.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4801 i found the fix.

I added

to /etc/apache2/conf.d/scalix-tomcat-connector.conf!

Now it works!

Thanks for your great support.

I think it has to be mentioned in the Wiki (https-rewrite). Although it ist only regarding to basic SSL config in Scalix.

thanks
Elmar
