Enabling SSL/HTTPS on self hosted env't

We're trying to enable SSL/HTTPS on a self hosted env't. SN has come back and said we need Apache web server on top of SN to do this. We haven't found much information online as to how this is done or if anyone has done something else.

If you have any information setting up HTTPS on a self hosted env't, please send it my way

Thanks!

Matthew,


I know this over a year old. However, I am running SNOW self hosted. I run SSL/HTTPS. You do not need anything more than what SNOW provides in their install packages. Use Keytool to generate your certs, and csr and then sign them with your CA. Import all your certs as you would expect. You need to add some configuration to the tomcat-server.xml file in the conf directory on your app node under /opt/glide/nodes/NODENAME/conf/. When you upgrade your ServiceNow version your tomcat-server.xml gets overwritten so be prepared to backup that file and restore it after the upgrade.



Let me know if you still need help with this, I will locate the block you need to add to the tomcat-server.xml file if you need it.


HI Chris,



We got our self hosted env't up and running over SSL. We've got a unique set up here which required a little tweeking but we're good.



Good luck!



Matthew


Any tips on getting it to work?   I have Apache running SSL, but can't get it to serve the application--I just get the Apache welcome page.   I've tried adding the mod_rewrite statements in the conf file, but no luck.   I've also tried setting it up in tomcat, with no luck there either.


Hi Howard,



Were you able to achieve this, if yes, can you please share the mod_rewrite statements for the config file.



Thanks...
