[xwiki-users] XWiki + HTTPS : are there current instructions available?

Greets, I want to enable https on my new xwiki installation. I see this in the administrators guide: ---------------------------- Security configuration See the Security Guide. If the users will be accessing XWiki using SSL (https) then you will have to change the way links are created so that external links do not redirect users back to the http page. This is accomplished by setting the xwiki.url.protocol property in xwiki.cfg. --------------------------------------- ... but I don't see any further detail on this page or on the Security Configuration page. I googled and found some how-to's , but they appear to be years old and I am not sure if they are current. I see, in the jetty dir, jetty-https.xml, jetty-ssl.xml, and jetty-xml. But I am not sure which to modify, and thought I saw on some 3rd-party page that you should leave jetty-ssl alone and add the configuration directly to jetty-xml. OK, here is where I saw that - but it's from 2010: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Setting-up-Xwiki-for-HTTPs-td5663073.html -------------------------------------- You don't need a jetty-ssl.xml file at all. If the document that you were reading is http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/How+to+configure+SSL , then just read step 4 and add the new connector configuration inside jetty/etc/jetty.xml, under the existing connector (line 57). ------------------------------------------- Also, that link on codehaus is no longer found. I googled it and found this page: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Setting-up-Xwiki-for-HTTPs-td5663073.html Now, on that page, it says to use this paragraph: The following is an example of an SslSelectChannelConnector configuration. You can configure an SslSocketConnector the same way–just change the value of the class to org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSocketConnector. <Call name="addConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSelectChannelConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.http.ssl.SslContextFactory"> <Set name="keyStore"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." />/etc/keystore</Set> <Set name="keyStorePassword">OBF:1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</Set> <Set name="keyManagerPassword">OBF:1u2u1wml1z7s1z7a1wnl1u2g</Set> <Set name="trustStore"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home" default="." />/etc/keystore</Set> <Set name="trustStorePassword">OBF:1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</Set> </New> </Arg> <Set name="port">8443</Set> <Set name="maxIdleTime">30000</Set> </New> </Arg> </Call> Interestingly, it doesn't actually say where to put it. Does that look current and if so, in which .xml should I place it? Can anyone point me to current instructions which I should follow? Aha: Here are some more recent instructions, from 2014: http://docs.sdl.com/LiveContent/content/en-US/SDL%20LiveContent%20full%20do… Do those look current? Interestingly, that page does not mention setting xwiki.url.protocol. Is that an oversight, and it should be done anyway? Thank you!!!
