Environment

Jira Data Center

Diagnosis

The following warning message appears in atlassian-jira.log:

1 http-nio-8080-exec-15 WARN admin 778x1498x2 xxxxxxx 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 /rest/plugins/1.0/installed-marketplace [c.a.u.core.async.AsynchronousTaskManager] Configured application base URL (https://jira.example.com:443) does not match base URL from request (http://jira.example:80)

And the server.xml has the default HTTP connector

1 2 3 4 <Connector port="8080" relaxedPathChars="[]|" relaxedQueryChars="[]|{}^\`"<>" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" connectionTimeout="20000" enableLookups="false" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" protocol="HTTP/1.1" useBodyEncodingForURI="true" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100" disableUploadTimeout="true" bindOnInit="false"/>

Cause

The warning can be noticed in following cases:

  • The Base URL is configured with HTTPS port 443 and being accessed via HTTP port like 8080

  • Also, the connector in server.xml file, is pointing to an HTTP connector and proxy configurations are missing which is over HTTPS.

    • proxyName

    • proxyPort

    • scheme

    • Secure

Solution

Update the Base URL as per the configuration in server.xml. However, if the proxy configurations are missing update the tomcat connector with the same

1 secure="true" scheme="https" proxyName="<subdomain>.<domain>.com" proxyPort="443"

Additionally, in case of Helm Chart, update the proxy details in values.yaml file

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 tomcatConfig: acceptCount: "10" connectionTimeout: "20000" customServerXml: "" enableLookups: "false" generateByHelm: false maxHttpHeaderSize: "8192" maxThreads: "100" mgmtPort: "8005" minSpareThreads: "10" port: "8080" protocol: HTTP/1.1 proxyName: <subdomain>.<domain>.com proxyPort: 443 redirectPort: "8443" scheme: https secure: true
