How do I make subsonic (media server) work with SSL?
- by John Baber
The roughly out-of-the-box setup as a regular user works fine (meaning the site appears at http://myserver.com:4040). From ps aux
java -Xmx100m -Dsubsonic.home=/var/subsonic -Dsubsonic.host=0.0.0.0 -Dsubsonic.port=4040 -Dsubsonic.httpsPort=0 -Dsubsonic.contextPath=/ -Dsubsonic.defaultMusicFolder=/var/music -Dsubsonic.defaultPodcastFolder=/var/music/Podcast -Dsubsonic.defaultPlaylistFolder=/var/playlists -Djava.awt.headless=true -verbose:gc -jar subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar
but just giving an https port
java -Xmx100m -Dsubsonic.home=/var/subsonic -Dsubsonic.host=0.0.0.0 -Dsubsonic.port=4040 -Dsubsonic.httpsPort=6060 -Dsubsonic.contextPath=/ -Dsubsonic.defaultMusicFolder=/var/music -Dsubsonic.defaultPodcastFolder=/var/music/Podcast -Dsubsonic.defaultPlaylistFolder=/var/playlists -Djava.awt.headless=true -verbose:gc -jar subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar
makes http://myserver.com:4040 say
HTTP ERROR: 404
NOT_FOUND
RequestURI=/index.view
Powered by jetty://
and https://myserver.com:6060 say
Unable to connect
I'm only making the change by doing
# SUBSONIC_ARGS="--port=80 --https-port=443 --max-memory=120"
SUBSONIC_ARGS="--max-memory=100 --https-port=6060"
in /etc/default/subsonic and issuing a
sudo service subsonic restart (this is Ubuntu Oneiric)
