Jun 24, 2010Thanks for your support. My situation is indeed the following :
"The HTTPS virtual is redirecting back to HTTP because I am terminating SSL on the BigIP and passing back to the servers in the clear"
I created the custom HTTP profile with "Redirect Rewrite" set to 'matching' and it is bound to my HTTPS virtual server.
It works to a point... As expected the url in my browser is always starting with "https://" (and hyperlinks get translated)...Here is the scenario :
(1) After authentication on the BigIP I get redirected on the server's login page. This page seems perfectly unaltered and the uri matches with the original one.
(2) After logging in on the server's login page, I am redirected to the homepage of the website. This homepage is missing some elements (colors, pictures, formatting....) and the uri does not match. It should be :
http://myhost.group.com/html/index.php?page=..%2Fcommon%2Frecord_edit.php%3Frkey%3DUSERID%26USERID%3D953%26rid%3D953%26btoken%3Da67ec199b2dc44f2d31b0005f12482c5953%26MM_edit%3D1%26PswWarn%3D3
And it is instead :
http://myhost.group.com/html/index.php
Do you know the reasons that could explain such a behavior ?
NB : Perhaps the need for transcription to "https://" is not limited to redirects... I imagin (java) scripts may contain instructions to access "http://" ressources...

VB
