Hello to everyone in the struts user-group!
 
In our productive environment we have a problem concerning struts redirects 
behind our load balanced servers. Queries to the running struts applications 
are sent by https protocol towards the load balancer which receives the query, 
terminates ssl and forwards plain http to a Jboss application server in which 
the struts application is running. Our problem is that struts receives the 
query in http and uses this protocol for the redirect but we would need https 
to recontact the load balancer correctly with ssl. We have a 4 step development 
process from the developer pc to our test system and then via our integration 
system to the productive environment. The developer pc, our test system and our 
integration system does not use ssl and the test and integration system is not 
load balanced. To support high availability our productive system is load 
balanced to 4 servers and uses ssl connection. We know that it is possible to 
solve it hard coded either by defining absolute links or define a forward in 
the struts config xml. But our release workflow through the 4 steps is mostly 
automated so that this would cause extensive administrative input for every 
application that passes a development phase. Therefore we are looking for a 
possibility to specify a global parameter so that struts redirects are sent by 
pre defined protocol. Http: on the developer pc, the test and integration 
system. Https: on our productive system. Is it possible to specify such a 
parameter or is there another possibility to override the protocol not 
restricting the use of relative links?
 
 
Kind Regards,
 
André Fritsch
