[rt-users] RT 3.8 nginx HTTPS + fastcgi_server redirects to HTTP

[Colin]

Hi all,
I'm migrating an Apache only HTTPS + mod_perl to a nginx + fastcgi.
But new setup after I open up the login page in https://servername and
insert my username+password, I get redirected to http://servername
thus I'm unable to connect as there isn't any HTTP configured and I
only run HTTPS.
After I login and if I go directly to https://servername it works and only
breaks again from HTTPS to HTTP when I use the search box.
Any ideas on what is forcing this redirection ?

I ran fastcgi_server with:
/var/www/rt3/bin/fastcgi_server --port 9000 -n 5

/var/www/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm:
Set($WebPath, '');
Set($WebBaseURL , 'https://servername');
Set($WebURL , $WebBaseURL . $WebPath . '/');

/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:
server {
listen   443;
server_name  servername;

ssl on;
ssl_certificate  /etc/ssl/servername.crt;
ssl_certificate_key  /etc/ssl/private/servername.key;

location / {
root   /var/rt3/share/html;
fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;

fastcgi_param  QUERY_STRING   $query_string;
fastcgi_param  REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param  CONTENT_TYPE   $content_type;
fastcgi_param  CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_param  PATH_INFO  $fastcgi_script_name;
}

location /NoAuth/images/ {
alias   /var/www/rt3/share/html/NoAuth/images/;
}
}

You must *remove* $WebPath, $WebBaseURL and $WebURL and *set*
$WebDomain $WebPort in your /var/www/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm.
