[xwiki-users] Redirection loop with registration

12 Jul 2013

      Hi folks,

I've installed Xwiki-manager and I've got a problem I'm not sure to
undestand... When I try to register on a "subwiki", I get a
redirection loop.
I think it comes from my architecture and the way XWiki handles registration.
Here's how I configured my server :
XWiki manager installed on port 8980. I have a http proxy (lighttpd)
on port 80 which redirects to port 8980
I created several subwikis with corresponding domain names.

So :
xwiki-manager:8980 -> main wiki
xwiki1:80 redirects to xwiki1:8980 -> a subwiki
xwiki2:80 redirects to xwiki2:8980 -> a subwiki
...

When I try to register on :
xwiki-manager:8980 -> OK
xwiki1:80 -> NOK (redirection loop)
xwiki2:8980 -> NOK (redirection loop)

For information, here's the configuration of my proxy :

$HTTP["host"] == "xwiki1" {
        proxy.server = ( "" =>
                ( (
                 "host" => "127.0.0.1",
                 "port" => 8980
                ) )
        )
}

Can someone help me to understand what happens and how to solve this issue ?

I tried setting xwiki.virtual.failOnWikiDoesNotExist to 1 but it does
not seem to change anything

Thanks
