I have an issue with detecting HTTPS when running on a virtual server behing mod_jk; here's my setup:

For reasons that I can't currently change I have an internal server running as app.server.com (example url); it is aliased so that multiple virtual hosts (name based) are running as: x.app.server.com , y.app.server.com, z.app.server.com, etc... The server has an internal SSL certificate generated for app.server.com; this produces a warning, but otherwise works when using HTTPS to connect to x.app.server.com. Not the best solution, I know, but like I said right now I am just trying to support it.

So, to complicate matters I have Tomcat (5.0.28) running on the same machine, with all the virtual hosts using <Alias>x.app.server.com</Alias> in my server.xml file. When connecting, I can access the web application via HTTPS; however Tomcat seems unaware that the connection is secure - request.isSecure() == false, as well as other tests that I can think of, overall annoying, but not too bad except that redirects are generated pointing to HTTP instead of HTTPS.

I have tried:
   JkExtractSSL On
   JkHTTPSIndicator HTTPS

Does anyone know of any work around/fix to this?

Thanks,
