[SOLVED] https for webmail - no go

[MathieuMa]

Hi,

I just installed a new zcs 5.0.3 server (glad to leave exchange !) and am trying to enable https for webmail usage.
For now I wouls like to have http redirect to https - but I don't manage to get it to work.

I already checked the forum / online doc - many stuffs are related to zcs 4.5 (no tomcat on zcs5) ...

What was done :
* webmail over HTTP works
* zmtlsctl redirect
* zmmailboxdctl restart

The result :
* Empty answers on port 80 (no http header)
* Connexion closes upon connect on port 443

Admin works like a charm using https


Anyone got a clue ?
(I don't mind using self signed certs for now - as for the admin)

Well, I'm not sure how, but it works now ...

I tried going back to http (did it twice, as the first time strange stuffs were happeningg) and it works with redirection now ...

On the second time I had to change the default port, which was 43, for https (although I had the latest version installed) :
* zmprov ms mail.xxx.fr zimbraMailSSLPort 443
* zmmailboxdctl restart

This is how I did it on 5.0.2 and it works just fine.

Edit /opt/zimbra/conf/httpd.conf and add this to the bottom of the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
 	ServerAdmin admin@mydomain.com
        ServerName mail.mydomain.com
        ServerAlias mail
        Redirect / https://mail.mydomain.com
</VirtualHost>

Then obviously restart Zimbra and test it out.

Make sure the NameVirtualHost *:80 line is not commented out
