This page describes how to get Confluence connecting to external servers over SSL, via the various SSL-wrapped protocols. For instance, you may want to:

  • Refer to an https://... URL in a Confluence macro.
  • Connect to an LDAP directory over SSL.
  • Set up JIRA as a trusted application in Confluence, when JIRA is running over SSL.

If you want to run Confluence itself over SSL, see Adding SSL for Secure Logins and Page Security.

SSL 証明書のインポート

The following commands are in reference to JDK 1.5. For commands/syntax relevant to JDK 1.6, please refer to this document.

Atlassian User LDAP supports connecting to an LDAP server over SSL/HTTPS. The Trusted Applications protocol requires configuration if JIRA is running over SSL.

  1. Add the root certificate to your default Java keystore with the following command. This is the certificate that was used to authorise the LDAP server's certificate. It will be either the one that was used for signing it, or will come from further up in the trust chain, possibly the root certificate. This is often a self-signed certificate, when both ends of the SSL connection are within the same network. Again, the exact alias is not important. 
    keytool -import -alias serverCert -file RootCert.crt -keystore %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Windows)
keytool -import -alias serverCert -file RootCert.crt -keystore $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Linux/Unix/Mac)
  2. LDAP サーバーまたは JIRA サーバーの公開証明書を JVM キーストアにインポートします。これは LDAP サーバーが SSL 暗号化を設定するために使用する証明書です。任意に選んだエイリアスを "JIRAorLDAPServer.crt" の代わりに使用できます。 
    keytool -import -alias ldapCert -file JIRAorLDAPServer.crt -keystore %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Windows)
keytool -import -alias ldapCert -file JIRAorLDAPServer.crt -keystore $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Linux/Unix/Mac)
  3. Edit the file in your Confluence installation directory, {confluence-installation}\confluence\WEB-INF\classes\atlassian-user.xml. Change the value of securityProtocol from "plain" to "ssl": 
    <securityProtocol>ssl</securityProtocol>
    Switch the LDAP connection to the SSL port, if it is different from the default LDAP port. If you are using the most common LDAPS port, set: 
    <port>636</port>
    The keytool will ask you for a password. The default password is 'changeit' without the quotes.
  4. 次のコマンドを入力して、証明書が正常に追加されたことを確認します。 
    keytool -list -keystore %JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Windows)
keytool -list -keystore $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts (Unix/Linux)
keytool -list -keystore /Library/Java/Home/lib/security/cacerts (Mac)
  5. Ensure that you have updated JAVA_OPTS to specify the path to the keystore, as specified in Connecting to SSL services, before restarting Tomcat/Confluence.
    There is no need to specify an alias for Confluence to use. On connecting to the LDAP server, it will search through the keystore to find a certificate to match the key being presented by the server.
