Description

Hi,

I'm driving Jetty behind an Apache SSL Proxy with mod_proxy/mod_rewrite. The proxy URL is http like, regarding performance issues. Unfortunately any servlet-redirects will be set up with http scheme location instead of a https scheme location.

I don't know if this topic is solvable on the Jetty side, but this is in general a blocker for using Jetty in production.

Andreas,

Have a look at JETTY-264, which suggests a solution.

Thanks a lot for the hint !

According to JETTY-264 I've implemented the following in the GrizzlyConnector:

public void customize(EndPoint endpoint, Request request) throws IOException    {
    super.customize(endpoint, request);
    if ("https".equals(request.getHeader("scheme"))){
        request.setScheme("https");
    }
}

Configuring the VirtualHost of my https port like this:

<VirtualHost *:8443>  # HTTPS-Trafic
 ....
 RequestHeader set scheme https
 ...
</VirtualHost>

Not a bug? Are you kidding? I have an application developed by third party, and how do I extend any classes?
