Tobias Wunden commented on MH-9382:
-----------------------------------
The issue stems from the following implementation detail in
StaticResource.doGet(). There, a redirect is sent if the request hits a
directory such as /admin. The redirect is sent as an absolute path and in these
cases it is up to the servlet container to translate this absolute path into an
absolute url, using the request's original scheme.
So far, so good. Unfortunately, when using Apache in front of Matterhorn/Jetty
and using ModProxy to forward https requests to Matterhorn on http, then Jetty
will see the requests as using http instead of https and therefore sending http
redirects, resulting in the admin UI switching back to http.
The following solutions seem possible:
* Convincing mod_proxy to send the original scheme
* Installing a servlet filter that will wrap the requests to return a different
scheme
* Modifying Jetty's default connector implementation according to
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Configuring+mod_proxy
* Running Matterhorn on SSL
> Requests to https://.../admin get redirected to http
