Description Christopher Guindon CLA 2016-09-12 14:01:17 EDT
We've decided in Bug 492923 - Discuss name of user dashboard website to create a reverse proxy to handle request from eclipse.org/user/[foo] => accounts.eclipse.org/users/[foo]

Can we set this up now? Since we are still working on the implementation of this new dashboard site. Can we use the staging server for now and update the reverse-proxy once this is live on production?

If so, the staging server is https://accounts-staging.eclipse.org.

Request should always be redirected to https://.

I assume there is some settings that I will need to update in drupal for all of this to work. Please let me know once the reverse proxy has been setup.

thanks

We should use the production server now, not staging, i.e, https://accounts.eclipse.org/users/cguindon

I tried to reverse proxy -- however, the SSL libs on www.eclipse.org are older than those on accounts and I cannot establish an SSL connection for a proxy.

Until we update www.eclipse.org, I've set up a redirect from https://eclipse.org/user/X to https://accounts.eclipse.org/users/X

when do we update eclipse.org so that we can use the short URL, and then we don't have the issue anymore about http not redirecting to https ?

Denis is is possible to set up a redirect on http?

http://eclipse.org/user/cguindon => https://accounts.eclipse.org/users/cguindon

http://eclipse.org/user/cguindon currently redirects to http://www.eclipse.org/user/cguindon and returns a 404.

I tried today, and I noticed a change. 

Working:
 - eclipse.org/user/ttoine is going to https://accounts.eclipse.org/users/ttoine
 - www.eclipse.org/user/ttoine is going to https://accounts.eclipse.org/users/ttoine

Not working:
 - accounts.eclipse.org/users/ttoine is not answering (without https)

Do you plan to do a redirection also on the last one? Should we update the bug status?

No, I don't plan on it.

I think we're done here for now.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

Closing this to fix. I think the current state is good.
