question about PVE non-https

[npereira]

HI, i use PVE behind a Pond reverse proxy. I need to be able to login to proxmox without having to go through https.

My front end will be https but the backend cannot, so having proxmox ve on https breaks what im trying to do.

How can I change proxmox to not use https but another non-standard port instead?

Or better yet, change it to a non standard port, ex: https://192.168.1.10:8080

I could use https but it needs to be on a different port.

So either :

http://192.168.1.10
or
https://192.168.1.10:8080


Thanks

Hi,
you should use always https! But if you want to change the port look at

/etc/apache2/ports.conf
/etc/apache2/sites-available/pve.conf

But I don't know if there any dependencies...

tried changing both the pve.conf and ports.conf to be 8080 instead of 443 and that did not work.

Any other suggestions?

I added port 555 to /etc/apache2/ports.conf
Then restarted apache2
I can now access the server via http://x.x.x.x:555/

This modification also leaves the https intact as well.

The only forseeable update would just rewrite ports.conf. If that happens just repeat the procedure to get everything working again.
