Disable SSL?

[jason99]

I just discovered Proxmox the other day, and so far I am liking it a lot . There is one major annoyance, however. We're running the system on an internal LAN, with no outside access possible, so we have no need for SSL. However, Chrome gives a certificate warning every time we log into the system and Firefox doesn't want to go there at all. Is there some way to just totally disable SSL? Thanks!

Do you have your own ca or can sign cert requests?
In background there is apache2 working. So if you want you only need to edit the config files.
I would give proxmox a signed cert.
For disabling SSL you need to edit the /etc/apache2/sites-available/pve.conf

at the end of the file you find line like this: RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R]
you only need to comment out this line and restart apache --> /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

I've never messed with CA's and don't plan to start until absolutely necessary

Thanks for the tip about changing the rewrite rule - I didn't realize it was so simple. Worked great!
