zenoss over ssl

Posted on April 18, 2007 by Nathan Powell

Since Zenoss runs inside of Zope, you have to do a couple of things to get it to run over ssl. There are zope plugins, and perhaps there is another way that Zenoss would recommend, but I have never been one for reading when I can stomp full speed ahead :)

I just created a vhost and used modproxy to proxy all the connections to https:



ServerAdmin bignate@yourwindowsbox.com
ServerName zen.domain.com

SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

Options ExecCGI Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
LogLevel warn

CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
ServerSignature On

ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Update: the plugin I use to format code is messing that up
