Known Issues

The Load Balancer has the following limitations with HTTP/HTTPS request processing.

• If a session uses a combination of HTTP and HTTPS requests, then the first request must be an HTTP Request. If the first request is an HTTPS request, it cannot be followed by an HTTP request. This is because the cookie associated with the HTTPS session is not returned by the browser. The browser interprets the two different protocols as two different servers, and initiates a new session. This limitation is valid only if httpsrouting is set to true.

• If a session has a combination of HTTP and HTTPS requests, then the application server instance must be configured with both HTTP and HTTPS listeners. This limitation is valid only if httpsrouting is set to true.

• If a session has a combination of HTTP and HTTPS requests, then the application server instance must be configured with HTTP and HTTPS listeners that use standard port numbers, that is, 80 for HTTP, and 443 for HTTPS. This limitation applies regardless of the value set for httpsrouting.
