HTTP to HTTPS redirect

[John Konc]

Using TrueNAS 12.0 stable, I enabled HTTP to HTTPS redirect and now I can't connect to the web interface using http or https. IS there a way to disable that from the command line?

Hi, did you find a workaround?

 

[Samuel Tai]

midclt call system.general.update '{"ui_httpsredirect": false}' to flip the setting back. You may also need to run service middlewared restart and service nginx restart to restart the middleware and the web server.

Hi Samuel,
is there a similar command to disable HTTP from cli ?
i would like to use HTTPS only if possible

Is your thinking that you'd rather just have port 80 totally closed, to minimize any attack surface?

seanm, Yes I would like to have port 80 totally closed.

I don't believe there is a way. I filed a request https://jira.ixsystems.com/browse/NAS-109745

Vote for it if you agree.

Not sure how to vote, that takes me to their Jira page, we normal users don't have log on's and don't see a vote button.

I'm just a 'normal user' too. You have to create an account on their jira, then you get the vote button.

Samuel, Can you help? I'm on TrueNAS 12.0 U7. I checked the box for http to https redirect thinking it will allow me to access via https but it has locked me out. I cannot ping the IP, nor are my SMB shares working. The webserver and ftp servers, however are still functional. I tried your method above but got several lines and the last line got an error "raise Error(self.name, 'A dict was expected'...

Can anyone help? Have lots of data on the NAS that I cannot access.

 

[vjardine]

What I was trying to say is that I can ping the IP, just cannot log in to manage it.
Regards.

As proposed, the below solutions doesn't work. I had to run it as Root with SUDO to have no permissions denied. Still I can see that port redirect is active.
"...midclt call system.general.update '{"ui_httpsredirect": false}' to flip the setting back. You may also need to run service middlewared restart and service nginx restart to restart the middleware and the web server...."

Any better option? I also loose my management to Truenas Now that I have it running.

Finally this works for me:

sudo curl --basic -u root -k -X PUT "https://<Your TrueNAS IP/api/v2.0/system/general" -H "accept: */*" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"ui_httpsredirect":false}'

and Reboot the unit
