Joomla SSL and SEF urls : mixed content

I tried it now on a fresh 7.4 and can confirm:

That’s right. Joomla has a static “powered by” link for instance, so mixed content is a Joomla “pb”.

But there seems to be something strange with Joomla, HTTPS and rewriting.

On a running Joomla Site on my webhost following line in Joomla page source is rewritten to https:

<base href="https://www.myworkingsiteonsomewebhost/" />

but on NethServer it stays http:

<base href="http://joomla.local/" />

What I did:

yum install http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/NethServer/7/x86_64/nethserver-stephdl-1.0.6-1.ns7.sdl.noarch.rpm
yum install http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
yum install nethserver-phpmyadmin nethserver-php-scl

Web UI:

touch /var/lib/nethserver/vhost/joomla/configuration.php
chown -R apache:apache /var/lib/nethserver/vhost/joomla

If you force HTTPS on entire site in Joomla configuration which means set “public $force_ssl = ‘2’;” in configuration.php you get a redirect error.

No reverse proxying.

Chrome error message (sorry for German)

Found a howto, maybe we can improve it:
