Automatically redirect HTTP to HTTPS in Dynatrace Cluster nodes

rene_abdon1 — Fri, 10 Dec 2021 05:57:42 GMT

Hi,

Is there an specific way to automatically redirect HTTP requests to my HTTPS in Dynatrace Managed cluster nodes?

I mean, many users forget to include https in the request and receive an error message that could easily be avoid if Dynatrace clusters made this automatically.

If I just add this code at nginx.conf file at all clusters nodes will resolve?

server {
	listen 80 default_server;
	server_name _;
	return301 <a href="https://$host$request_uri;">https://$host$request_uri;
}

or will cause another bug in my environment.

Yes, this should work. However, this snippet will probably disappear after upgrade.

Yeah, you are rigth, maybe an script that check and update nginx.conf file can solve this, I will try and come back here to say if works.

This can be done by using a custom.settings file:
