We have installed our licence. Now, when navigating to the User management page or many other pages/objects with /m/ in the path: /master/m/main.jsp?pageId=2055&tabId=2556 we get this error: "Security Problem Illegal HTTP redirection" No other errors in the logs I'm afraid. When we remove the license.xml file and restart Tomcat it works again so only a problem when the licence is enabled.
It seems to be any URL with a ? and GET variables after if that helps?
Hi surferking. We are another Private Cloud customer with RollBase. I seem to recall this error occurring when the system tries to redirect from one Host-Name to another. Is it possible that the url you are using for your site doesn't exactly match the one identified in the license?
Also, there is a very helpful tool called Fiddler (http://fiddler2.com/) which is very useful for diagnosing these types of issues - it will show the traffic between your browser and server, including urls and redirects.
Thanks, much appreciated, will post if we can find the cause for future reference.
Looks like it was that we had our 'http' site automatically redirecting to 'https' in the Apache config. It was...
Redirect / https://erp.ourdomain.com/
Updated to...
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/

FTR, this wasn't resolved by the above in the end. I was setting it up using some simple 'mod_proxy' like I have with all my other Tomcat-based servers, which seemed to work in evaluation mode, but only half-work with the license installed.
Further RTFM'ing showed that it's best to set it up using 'mod_jk' with two worker processes. Having done this, it now seems to be working fully as expected.
I suspect it's probably possible to set it up using 'mod_proxy' with a slightly more complicated set of proxy rules than I was using, but I haven't gone there with this.
