How to set up your InterMine webapp to use https
================================================
You will need to use a CDN delivering https content (see :doc:`/webapp/performance/index`), for example https://cdn.intermine.org
Set the corresponding entry in ‘global.web.properties’, for example
.. code-block:: properties
head.cdn.location = https://cdn.intermine.org
You can also override this property by setting it directly in your ``mine.properties`` file.
.. note::
If you are moving your existing mine to https, please take care of updating also the following properties in the same ``mine.properties`` file:
- project.sitePrefix
- webapp.deploy.url
- webapp.baseurl
If you are using your own jbrowse server, this will now need to be served through https as well, and you will need to adjust also the property:
- jbrowse.install.url
Tomcat requirements
----------------------
You should add a configuration to your tomcat server.xml in the Engine section, specifying the address of your proxy:
.. code-block:: xml
It is also good practice to limit access to tomcat port only to the host's loopback address (localhost):
.. code-block:: xml
