[rt-users] Using https in web interface results sometimes in "Bad Request"

[James J. Oliver]

Benno,

Thanks for the investigation - that throws more light on it. We were using http internally and https externally - I think I may just patch my systems as per your test and use https 100% of the time, the server is not particularly heavily loaded so it should not be a big problem. How did you decide to proceed and have you had any more feedback on the "if" statement?

Best regards

James

Hi Ruslan,

Yes, for testing purposes I have used both http and https.  http works
fine, also for the Redirect subroutine in Web.pm.

For testing/debugging, I have removed the if-then-else statement and
just hardcoded the $uri->scheme('https') in Redirect.  Then https works
like a charm, but now using http and a redirect happens, http is
promoted to https by the hardcoded $uri->scheme('https').  As expected
of course. :-)

Best,
