Tod,
>>Is there anything that can be done, via my server.xml file or otherwise,
to allow a non-SSL connection to launch Mifos X? Or is this going to
require a code change?
No, we explicitly disallow HTTP requests in the Platform, so would need to
edit an XML file in the codebase to remove the same.
On second thought, we might not want to remove the same immediately ( as we
would expect most real world MifosX deployments to compulsorily use HTTPS
), as this would necessitate maintaining two different download artifacts
which would be an overhead given our frequent releases cycles..
Regards,
Vishwas
