HTTP to HTTPS redirection

HTTP to HTTPS redirection

Customer should be running the application in https with 443 port.

> ChangeWebServerport.bat 443 https

Once the ports are updated, Follow the steps given below to setup the redirection from HTTP to HTTPS,
  1. Go to the folder C:\\ManageEngine\\SupportCenter\\server\\default\\deploy\\jbossweb-tomcat50.sar and open the file server.xml with WordPad.
  2. Find the below entry in the file server.xml 
    <¡-- A HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
    <¡-- The compression parameters are taken from the default Tomcat server.xml-->
    <¡--Connector port="8080" address="${jboss.bind.address}"
    maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
    enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
    connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"
    compression="off"
    compressionMinSize="2048"
    setBodyEncodingForURI="true"
    noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata"
    compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain"/-->
    Remove '¡--' which is before Connector port="8080" address="${jboss.bind.address}" and then remove -- which is after compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain"/
    Change the value 8080 to 80 and 8443 to 443 and save the file.
    So after the changes the entry should be as shown below.
    <¡-- A HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
    <¡-- The compression parameters are taken from the default Tomcat server.xml-->
    <Connector port="80" address="${jboss.bind.address}"
    maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
    enableLookups="false" redirectPort="443" acceptCount="100"
    connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"
    compression="off"
    compressionMinSize="2048"
    setBodyEncodingForURI="true"
    noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata"
    compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain"/>
  3. Go to the folder C:\\ManageEngine\\SupportCenter\\applications\\extracted\\AdventNetSupportCenter.eear\\
    AdventNetServiceDeskWC.ear\\AdventNetServiceDesk.war\\WEB-INF
    Edit the web.xml file and search for the content below and add the lines in bold / highlighted. 
    <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>Secured Core Context>/web-resource-name>
    <url-pattern>/jsp/*</url-pattern>
    <url-pattern>/tasks/*</url-pattern>

    </web-resource-collection>

    </auth-constraint>
    <user-data-constraint>
    <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
    </user-data-constraint>
    </security-constraint>
  4. Restart the service ManageEngine SupportCenterPlus service.
