Hello Seth,

 

Thanks a lot ! It converts to HTTP even if I access local Portal iViews :(

 

If you can please advise on anything that we could check on the F5, would be great :)

 

Thanks a lot ! saba.

    Saba, Just to confirm what you are saying... when you access the application outside of the APM you get converted to HTTP also? If so you can either have the app fixed or you can write an iRule to adjust this for you. Can you please clarify the information on if it works directly to the web app? Seth

    Hello ! Sorry I wasn't clear earlier. We have our Portal system connected to backend SAP systems. So some buttons are backend iViews & some are local Portal buttons. Irrespective of what one tries to access, the minute the credentials are passed, even before the page opens up, the protocol (in the main URL) switches to HTTP in the blink of an eye :( We'll check Yann's link below too... Thanks a lot :) saba.
