------------------------------
Summary: [Documentation] Incomplete configuration steps
Key: HBASE-25498
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-25498
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: wenhao
When I configured https for the HBase web UI according to the document, I found
that it could not take effect. According to the following
link(https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Community-Articles/Enable-HTTPS-SSL-for-HBASE-Master-UI/ta-p/247031),
I found that he needs to rely on hdfs to enable https. In the configuration
process of hbase, we do not need to write a detailed configuration process, but
do we need to be reminded that only modifying the parameters according to the
configuration steps will not take effect.
I think we need to add hints to the document(Bold content)：
h3. 59.1. Using Secure HTTP (HTTPS) for the Web UI
A default HBase install uses insecure HTTP connections for Web UIs for the
master and region servers. To enable secure HTTP (HTTPS) connections instead,
set {{hbase.ssl.enabled}} to {{true}} in _hbase-site.xml*(Please configure
https for hdfs in advance)*_.
