Hi everyone. I just installed a custom cert this afternoon on our development search head, and after some stumbling we were able to get it to work. We ended up having to set the httpport field to 443, and then the configurations given in these docs worked fine: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0.3/Admin/Webconfhttp://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0.3/Security/TroubleshootyourSplunkWebauthenticationhttp://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0.3/Security/TurnonbasicencryptionwithSplunkWeb
Now, the only issue is if a user types in our URL, it will show a 404 error. They have to know to manually type in httpS://my.example.com to go to splunk.
In a perfect world there would be a httpport option for web.conf, and also a httpsport option for web.conf. If you went to the http, it would perform the redirect elegantly.
Is there any easy way to automatically redirect the http request on port 80 to the https request on port 443? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
