https in wikimanager

Hello,
I'm creating Wiki from XwikiManager and I want to set the option "SSL
enabled" but I don't see any difference when it is enabled or not...
Can anyone give some info about this feature because I may have missed
something?

This option is just to force using "https" protocol in generated
external URL. Like URL from other wikis.

See http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/EditWikiDescriptor#HSecure

Ok I see but for example when redirecting, should it generate also https
url?
because I don't see any difference when I activate this option...

Where exactly you don't see any difference ? As i said it's only for
external URLs, inside the wiki itself most of the URLs are local URLs,
meaning something like "/xwiki/bin/view/Space/Page" so yes you will
not see any difference.

For example you can quickly see the difference in the
/xwiki/bin/view/WikiManager/ list of wikis on the main wiki: if it's
enabled you will have in the column "Domain names" an URL with the
protocol "https". If it's not enabled it uses the protocol of the URL
which called XWiki application.

So usually you enable this option if you can't properly configure your
proxy/apachehttps to give the right URL to XWiki.

Ok I understand... only for external URLs and nothing else...
my problem is that I'm behind apachehttps proxy which translates between
external https and internal http and everything works fine but the
"saveandcontinue" action...
It gives a 302 temporarily moved error but do not redirect anywhere...
I will look in the mailing lists if anybody had this problem...
maybe a problem in my proxy config...

thks anyway
