Cause: Weblogic server not using loadbalancer protocol (https) for redirect urls   When SSL is terminated at the loadbalancer or using reverse proxy, weblogic server should use the loadbalancer hostname/protocol for all redirect URLs Solution: 1.  Add a ProxySSLHeaderVar entry to the "User Defined Parameters" section at the bottom of the form. The value of the proxySSLHeaderVar parameter defines the name of the header variable the proxy must set. The value of the header variable must be "ssl" or "nonssl". For example:   ProxySSLHeaderVar:IS_SSL 2. Set the WebLogic 'Plugin Enabled' flag as follows   a. Log into WebLogic Console    b. Click the domain name on the left menu bar   c.
