Steps: 1) Configure Orion according to http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Server_admin_guide#Configuring_to_run_over_SSL, do not modify jetty.http.port though, leave 8080 2) Create a project and add a site for it 3) Start the site See that site is started on port 8080 and we cannot access it. The workaround is to update jetty.http.port as described in the admin guide. I think that HostingActivator#registerHostingService should initialize the port using our configuration, not directly using the system property. Moreover I noticed a hardcoded protocol name "http" in SiteConfigurationResourceHandler#changeHostingStatus. There is also an issue when Orion is started on the default http or https port (80 or 443). When a site is started, I can't access it by simply clicking the site link. But maybe it is just a matter of Orion configuration. Anyway there is a workaround to run Orion on https and have the site feture still working. So I think this is a 0.3 work item.
http://git.eclipse.org/c/e4/org.eclipse.orion.server.git/commit/?id=e312099fee65b361b7170b00f2fcd57a9fd33e44 Removed the concept of a port number from the site hosting code. The original intent was to be able to host sites on a port that was different from the port that the rest of Orion was using. This made the code more complex and it was never used anyway. Hosted sites now work with https. The workaround of setting jetty.http.port is not necessary. The hardcoded "http" prefix (which was only used for setting the X-Edit-Server header) is also removed.
I also removed the note about the workaround from http://wiki.eclipse.org/Orion/Server_admin_guide#Configuring_to_run_over_SSL
