How to install bugzilla with https access?

+2 votes
465 views

I can not find a resolution on bugzilla's doc about how to install bugzilla with https. By default, the bugzilla installation will be access with http://, not https://

If I want to access use https://, is there any package or software additional should be installed first? Or I can just configure on Bugzilla's parameter: SSL_Redirect and sslbase, and no need to change with bugzilla installation?

I can not find a resolution on bugzilla's doc about how to install bugzilla with https.

Surely because it's mostly not the scope of the installation docs, there are plenty of SSL How tos on the web for every web server available. Simply follow those until it works. ;-)

If I want to access use https://, is there any package or software additional should be installed first?

That depends on your web server and where you get your certificates form or if you want to create your own etc. Bugzilla itself shouldn't need anything special.

Or I can just configurate on Bugzilla's parameter: SSL_Redirect and sslbase, and no need to change with bugzilla installation?

That should be enough, but you need to configure your web server properly. I would suggest using ssl_redirect only if you made sure everything works.

how to log unauthorized https access attempts

I use https with client cert authentication

AccessLogValve cannot be placed inservice, only in engine (host, context), but if client has bad/untrusted cert or no cert at all, possibly connector doesn't pass him to engine and to AccessLogValve.

How can I log such access attempts with tomcat ?

HTTPS with basic authentication in Header

I'm trying to setup a forward proxy to access certain endpoints on Remote server which require https with basic authentication in header.

A(Application server) ---> Forward proxy (B) ----> Remote server(C)

i'm at B on which i have setup below Apache Virtual host in which i'm setting the headers to use basic authentication passing encoded value of user & pass configured on remote server.However,i want to include HTTPS in my request to C to ensure the headers are sent securely with encrption to remote server (C). I do Not want to use a separate Virtual host for HTTPS. Should i include a SSL Server certificate in my proxy configuration as given below with the basic authentication in header ?
How can i achieve this in Single virtual host ? I have limited knowledge on apache, so please help here.

I tried searching on the internet but did not find the required solution.

##### vHost 9099 is for basic auth with HTTPS #####
Listen *:9099
<VirtualHost *:9099>

        ServerName      myservername.com
        ServerAlias     myservername.com
        ServerAdmin     iamadmin@myservername.com
        DocumentRoot    /my/doc/root/
        SSLEngine on
        RewriteEngine On
        AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode

        ProxyRequests On

        # SSL configuration

        SSLCertificateFile       /Path to cert.pem
        SSLCertificateKeyFile    /Path to private key
        SSLCACertificateFile     /Path to CA certs


        ##  Basic64  Encoded XXXX od user and passwd in header

         RequestHeader set Authorization "Basic XXXXX"


         ##  Endpoints accessed via https with basic authentication in header

         ProxyPass /api/api1/   https://30.30.115.22:11111/api/api1/
         ProxyPassReverse /api/api1/    https://30.30.115.22:11111/api/api1/


</VirtualHost>

Error with python 3.3.2 and https

I am trying to write a program that requires me hitting a https web link. However, I can't seem to get it to work. The program works fine when dealing with http sites, however, when I try it with a https site I get

socket.gaierror: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed

It seems like it has something to do with the ssl not working, however, I do have the ssl.py in the python library and I have no problem importing it.

My code is below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

import urllib.request
auth = urllib.request.HTTPSHandler()
proxy = urllib.request.ProxyHandler({'http':'my proxy'})
opener = urllib.request.build_opener(proxy, auth)
f = opener.open('http://www.google.ca/')
