You can change the portal url in the Admin portlet.

<br />You can change the portal url in the Admin portlet.<br />

<br /><br />Unfortunately that doesn&#39;t work. I set it both the Home URL and Portal URL to www.mydomain.com/liferay and that didn&#39;t change the way the links are built.<br /><br />-Dave

<br />hi david,<br /><br />in portal.properties<br /><br /> #<br /> # Set the hostname that will be used when the portlet generates URLs.<br /> # Leaving this blank will mean the host is derived from the servlet<br /> # container.<br /> #<br /> web.server.host=<br /><br /> #<br /> # Set the preferred protocol.<br /> #<br /> #web.server.protocol=https<br /><br />hope this help.<br /><br />joe

<br /><br />Thanks, that got me much closer. Now the problem is the port. <br /><br />The jboss server is running on port 9000 and my apache server redirects /liferay to it. After updating portal-ext.propertis with web.server.host and web.server.protocol, when I go to <a href="http://www.mydomain.com/liferay" target="_blank">http://www.mydomain.com/liferay</a> I am redirected to <a href="https://www.mydomain.com:9000/liferay" target="_blank">https://www.mydomain.com:9000/liferay</a>. <br /><br />So now for the redirect at least all I need to do is get rid of the 9000 on the URL. Hopefully once I&#39;m able to log in the links will also be created correctly.<br /><br />I tried setting web.server.port to 443 but it didn&#39;t change anything.<br /><br />-Dave<br />

<br /><br />hi david,<br /><br /> i use mod_jk with apache-tomcat so i am not very familiar with apache-jboss setup. are you using mod_proxy? you may need to use proxypassreverse to rewrite the url so that jboss will get a port 80 when we do a request.getServerPort().<br /><br />joe

<br /><br />Yes, I&#39;m using mod_proxy with the reverse. <br /><br />But, I found another fix. Added web.server.http.port=80 and web.server.https.port=443 solved the problem. Now the redirects are working and the links are being created correctly. <br /><br />Thanks for the help everyone&#33;
