SAP IDM REST API v2 over HTTPS configuration

[clotilde_martinez]

Hello Experts,

I'm running over a tricky problem. I recently updated my dev and qa systems to IDM 8.0 SP6 (from IDM 8.0 SP4). I think I'm missing a configuration somewhere in NWA.

Since SP6, documentation says "Identity Management REST Interface v2 requires HTTPS communication by default." If I try from chrome to do a simple request, on production i get a result :

http://:50000/idmrestapi/v2/service/ET_MX_PERSON as well as when i use the url

https://:50001/idmrestapi/v2/service/ET_MX_PERSON

in DEV and QA, if I try the http one, i get the following error message : For security reasons, SAP Identity Management requires HTTPS communication by default. (in line with the documentation)

If i try the second url, i get a 500 Internal Server Error.

NWA log shows the following error :

Cannot process an HTTP request to servlet [OData] in [idmrestapi] web application.
[EXCEPTION]

I then tried to change the parameter v2.AllowHttp on the tc~idm~rest~ear Java application to true, restarted the application. And i get the same error in HTTP as in HTTPS.

So I'm almost sure I'm missing something in NWA.

I followed the configuration guide part "Configuring Single Sign-On With Logon Tickets in the REST Interface for AS Java 7.1 and higher" with no success.

Does anyone has any idea on what I'm missing here?

Thanks a lot,
