Dynmap: SSL and web server setup

Created on 8 Mar 2017 · 7Comments · Source: webbukkit/dynmap

Well, recently I've added a SSL cert to my personal web, hosted in my personal server using Apache2, the point is that the wher I've included dynmap (using http://mydomain.dom:8123) has stopped working because of force ssl. </p> <p>First I would like to know where could I find documentation to setup dynmap to user SSL, I've been reading articles like this:<br /> <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-without-the-Internal-Web-Server">https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-without-the-Internal-Web-Server</a><br /> or this:<br /> <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-Dynamic-Map-with-apache2-under-Debian">https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-Dynamic-Map-with-apache2-under-Debian</a><br /> (despite of I've got ArchLinux instead Debian)</p> <p>I cannot get dynmap working through my apache server, I've moved /srv/craftbukkit/plugins/dynmap/web folder to /srv/http/dynmap and modified the settings as you specify in first link but dynmap stop works, also I've to say that my sites is located in /srv/http/mymainwebsite/wordpress and I've created a vhost pointing this folder to assign my domain at main website. Also I've added to my vhost setup FallbackResource to remove index.php from several URI, so I need to add exceptions like /dynmap. </p> <p>However I cannot do work dynmap in anyway, it doesn't work with <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="http://publicIP">http://publicIP</a>:8123 and doesn't with <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="http://publicIP/dynmap">http://publicIP/dynmap</a> (with exception added) when I've setup through my apache server. </p> <p>what do you recommend me to enable ssl in my dynmap? this is my site <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://lentium.xyz">https://lentium.xyz</a></p> <p>Thank you so much.</p> </div> <div> <div class="float-right"> <a class="text-muted" href="https://www.github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/issues/2071" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank" onclick="dataLayer.push({'event': 'GAEvent', 'eventCategory': 'click', 'eventAction': 'source_bottom', 'eventLabel': 'Source Bottom', 'eventValue': undefined});">Source</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card-footer"> <div class="row"> <div class="col"> <img src="https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/4059108?v=4&s=40" style="width:20px; height:20px;" class="mr-2 rounded float-left" alt=" picture"> <strong>jfernandz</strong> </div> <div class="col text-right"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12"> <div id="ph-above-best-comment"> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 mb-4 best-comment"> <div> <h2 class="mb-3"><i class="fas fa-check mr-2"></i>Most helpful comment</h2> </div> <div class="card card-custom border-lg-success mb-4"> <div class="card-body pt-3 pb-3 markdown"> <p>Good luck i have tried everything with no luck if you figure it out i would love to know how you did it </p> </div> <div class="card-footer"> <div class="row"> <div class="col"> <img src="https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/2609722?v=4&s=40" style="width:20px; height:20px;" class="mr-2 rounded float-left" alt=" picture"> <strong>Bealze</strong> <span class="text-muted ml-1">on 8 Mar 2017</span> </div> <div class="col text-right"> 👍<span class="ml-2 mr-3">3</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12"> <div class="mb-4"> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3835332123789605" data-ad-slot="9295564578" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 d-flex align-items-center mb-4"> <h2>All 7 comments</h2> </div> <div class="col-12"> <div class="card card-custom mb-4"> <div class="card-body pt-3 pb-3 markdown"> <p>Good luck i have tried everything with no luck if you figure it out i would love to know how you did it </p> </div> <div class="card-footer"> <div class="row"> <div class="col"> <img src="https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/2609722?v=4&s=40" style="width:20px; height:20px;" class="mr-2 rounded float-left" alt="Bealze picture"> <strong>Bealze</strong> <span class="text-muted ml-1">on 8 Mar 2017</span> </div> <div class="col text-right"> 👍<span class="ml-2 mr-3">3</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="card card-custom mb-4"> <div class="card-body pt-3 pb-3 markdown"> <p>Well, I've found that link <a rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-Dynamic-Map-with-Apache-httpd-under-Arch-Linux">https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-Dynamic-Map-with-Apache-httpd-under-Arch-Linux</a> which fits better to my requirements.
