First the good news, I was able to get it to work by deploying the application in the root context. Once I did that, everything worked the way it should, paged switched from http to https with no problem. The bad news is that deploying it as / not an option. I've tried overriding createRedirectUrl to strip out the context in the url in HttpsMapper, but that only works part of the time. For example, when I put the @RequireHttps annotation on a page, and have logged in, when I click a link to it /documentation is added to the URL, which tells me it's more of a problem than just HttpsMapper. Perhaps it's a problem with the delegate mapper as well. The fact that it works correctly when deployed as the root context tells me there's got to be a better way to fix it. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to where to start looking. It would be nice if there was a way to tell the wicket application that "even though I'm deployed at '/myapp', I'm actually behind a proxy and my context is '/'" That would really solve the problem.

I was thinking of creating a JIRA ticket or feature request for this.

Any thoughts?

Ok, I'm making *some* progress (if you can call it that). First of all, here's more about my setup. I'm using wicket-auth-roles for authentication and I have this set up in my WebApplication.class based on an example I found in wicket examples:

1) the authorization strategy
getSecuritySettings().setAuthorizationStrategy(new IAuthorizationStrategy()
{

    @Override
public <T extends IRequestableComponent> boolean isInstantiationAuthorized(Class<T> componentClass)
    {
        if (AuthenticatedWebPage.class.isAssignableFrom(componentClass))
        {
            if (ApiAuthenticatedWebSession.get().isSignedIn())
                return true;

throw new RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException(new LoginPage());
        }
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isActionAuthorized(Component component, Action action)
    {
        return true;
    }
});

2) I have every page needing login.
3) I've got the login page mounted as /login and @RequireHttps on it.
4) In the onsubmit of the the login form I'm calling continueToOriginalDestination();

That's my setup, My attempt was to override createRedirectUrl in HttpsMapper so that it looks like this:

@Override
protected String createRedirectUrl(IRequestHandler handler, Request request, Scheme scheme)
{
return StringUtils.remove(super.createRedirectUrl(handler, request, scheme), "/documentation");
}

This works as long as I go to http://myserver.com/login and it will correctly redirect to https://myserver.com/login rather than https://myserver.com/documentation/login like it did before. However, if I go to http://myserver.com/ (the home page which redirects to the login page as part of the authorization strategy) it goes to https://myserver.com/documentation/login. Also if I go straight to the login page, login successfully, it will redirect to http://myserver.com/documentation what it thinks is the home page.

I looked at the code in RestartResponseAtInterceptPageException and I'm thinking this code could be the culprit:

static void continueToOriginalDestination()
{
        InterceptData data = InterceptData.get();
        if (data != null)
        {
            data.continueOk = true;
String url = RequestCycle.get().getUrlRenderer().renderUrl(data.originalUrl); RequestCycle.get().replaceAllRequestHandlers(new RedirectRequestHandler(url)); <-- that's probably it
        }
}

I also noticed when debugging, that if I go to http://myserver.com, it never gets to the HttpsMapper#createRedirectUrl method probably because of the code above. Of course, everything above works perfect when I'm running it in WebLogic by itself with no Apache Proxy in front of it.

I know what I wrote is not the best solution, but I'm really not sure there's any other way based on how the Weblogic Apache plugin works.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Tim,

I do not use Weblogic but I do use Jboss.
Your problem sounds familar (but not exactly the same).
Take a look at my resolution here:
http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/Configure-http-and-https-with-apache-and-jboss-td3633546.html
and try and apply it to Weblogic.

Regards
Vishal
