Hi,

I am currently trying to disable the use of https on the webtools/admin side of ofbiz so that we can use access control to pass users to the appropriate location within our network.

Our system will consist of SSL terminated behind our router/firewall on the proxy server prior to the proxy forwarding to the ofbiz application servers. https will be used until the traffic hits the proxy where it is decrypted using stunnel or similar. Once decrypted we will use the http-based ACLs to pass the traffic to the appropriate login instance.

Problem is, I seem to be unable to force the use of http only within our test environment.

Currently the test environment we have been looking at this with is trunk-2009-07-21-v796194 using embedded Tomcat but we would be looking to running a full Tomcat install on a production system.

To date I have tried changing the settings of url.properties to port.https.enabled=N
and
force.http.host=Y

also have looked at server.xml in the tomcat6 section and just for a test changed all 8443 to 8080 however when the following url was tried
http://server-name:8080/webtools/login
it changed back to https://.......:8443/....

I was wondering if there was anything that I have missed or if there is a specific file/entry that holds the configuration settings for webtools/login.

I haven't had much experience of configuring Tomcat or OfBiz (past database setup and initial install) as until recently my focus has been elsewhere.

Regards
William Angus
