yeah, that would be a similar deployment environment than a cloud
provider's SSL termination...

...  and I imagine this ^^^ would work - but I don't think we would want to
change this, that's "unsecure by default".

I've meanwhile found another solution looks like it works for me, check out
https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/798/files, and see (updates to)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-914 for more background. --
I'm curious if this works for you with Nginx as well?

Let me know if it helps.

Hi Michael,

I encountered this issue when trying to run fineract behind nginx proxy.

It was fixed/walked around by changing all the requires-channel=https in to http in this file https://github.com/apache/fineract/blob/develop/fineract-provider/src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/securityContext.xml <https://github.com/apache/fineract/blob/develop/fineract-provider/src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/securityContext.xml>

Let me know if it helps.
