Setting up NGINX SSL reverse proxy for Tomcat

November 25th, 2011 by bananos

As it turned out proxyPort property was the key to proxying Tomcat via Nginx.

Hm, for me that does not really work. I entered the proxyPort but when my java webapp tries to do a redirect, it does that to http://….:443/... instead of https://...

any idea?

ah, just got it: scheme=”https” did the job on the connector

  Like Klaus, I found that I had to set the proxyPort to 443 and add scheme=”https”. This is like black magic. Sheesh.

Hi, If I have only one war running in tomcat and I do not want other sites to be routed by balancer, What is the best option? Should I follow above setup or should I remove nginx and run tomcat in https more?
