Kaltura Core and SSL Questions

Hello,

RE #1: yes, correct.
LBs typically set the X-Forwarded-Proto header when forwarding the requests.
The Kaltura code looks for the HTTPS header to determine whether or not the request should be made over HTTPs.
and so:

SetEnvIf X-Forwarded-Proto https HTTPS=on

Which says: if we have a header called X-Forwarded-Proto, set HTTPS to "on"

RE #2: no longer true since we are now using the standard nginx proxy_pass directive to do the http requests.
It should work correctly if you set:

        upstream kalapi {
                server https://$SERVICE_URL;
        }

in the Nginx config. Can you please try and let me know? if all is well, I'll also update the doc.

Thanks,
