I am trying to run websphere behind ingress. I have successfully configured the ingress for it and I am able to access the console. The ip on which I am able to access the console is
https://mydomain/ibm/console/logon.jspNote: I have a domain , for which I created a A record.
When I login into the console , I am redirected to
https://mydomain:9043/ibm/console/This page does not exist.
If I explicitly run the URL https://dns/ibm/console/login.do?action=secure. My application works fine.
Can someone tell me where is the configuration needed so that it is not redirected to dns:port?
I have created all the config following the URL: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63505087/problem-configuring-websphere-application-server-behind-ingress
The request is http://hostname/ibm/console/logon.jsp and it returns http://hostname:9080/ibm/console/logon.jsp
This is causing confusion and thus we are facing an issue.
The port which our was app uses is controlled by two properties:
trusthostheaderport = true
com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.extractHostHeaderPort = true These can be created in the WAS Admin console under:
Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server_name > Web Container Settings > Web container > Additional Properties > Custom Properties
Setting both of these properties with a value of "true" should force WAS to use the front-end port (from the Host header) instead of the Webcontainer port.
Note: You need to restart the service after the change ( restart in case of docker containers)
Please find the documentation here.
