[Glass] How to run Seaside web gem with https

[Yanni Chiu]

IMHO, the simplest thing to do would be to configure an haproxy for https, same as now. But pre-load some mappings in haproxy - something like:
  https://dev.foo.com/bob1 ==> bob.foo.com <http://bob.foo.com/>:9001
  https://dev.foo.com/bob2 ==> bob.foo.com: <http://bob.foo.com:8080/>9002
  https://dev.foo.com/doug1 <https://dev.foo.com/bob1> ==> doug.foo.com <http://bob.foo.com/>:9001
  https://dev.foo.com/doug <https://dev.foo.com/bob1>2 ==> doug.foo.com:9002 <http://doug.foo.com:9002/>

Developer Bob would run their dev Seaside listening on porto 9001 on their workstation. Configuring extra paths/portnos mappings would allow development of more than one web server at the same time.

If you did manage to get https to work directly from GemStone, then that configuration would actually be further away from the actual production deployment.

Just occurred to me that maybe Azure SSO might not be able to handle the situation, but I don’t know Azure.

For the small development databases we run one web gem and connect on a known port. Works fine for development work, but it does not support single sign-on since Azure only allow for https (or http for localhost) in its redirect setting.
