I did a fresh reinstall on OS X Server, ensuring that the web server was NOT running when I did so. This time, all seems fine and Zimbra's webmail interface is responding to requests on ports 8080 and 8443 after running the zmsetup.pl script, during which I set the mail mode to 'mixed' to force HTTPS authentication.
At this point
Code:
curl -i http://FQDN:8080
gets me a 302 redirect as expected to
https://FQDN:8443, and
Code:
curl -i -k https://FQDN:8443
gives me the login page on the server.
The Apache proxying also works fine, and the only issue I'm dealing with is how to handle the 302 redirection from 8443 to 8080 for the login page.
There is still the issue with restarting Tomcat, which is that it claims not to be able to find the running slapd process. So I did a restart using /opt/zimbra/bin/zmcontrol stop and start instead.
Now, without having changed anything on the configuration,
Code:
curl -i http://FQDN:8080
gets me the insecure login page!?
Code:
curl -i -k https://FQDN:8443
gets me nothing!?
So after all this, I am currently unable to get Zimbra to respond to ports 8080 and 8443 correctly.
Any help welcome.
