scheduled reports on https - Zabbix 6.2.1

[verde]

My scheduled report was working beautifully until I configured SSL (on apache) for Zabbix that redirect all request HTTP to HTTPS. (Directions at the bottom).

So, I reconfigured the server URL for the GUI (Administration->General->others) pointing to HTTPS:// instead of HTTP://, Then I changed the server configuration:

/etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf

+ WebServiceURL=https://zabbix.ip:10053/report

/etc/zabbix/zabbix_web_service.conf

+IgnoreURLCertErrors=1

But after restarting zabbix_services, and testing the scheduled report I got: "Cannot connect to web service: sSL connect error"

Browsing for similar issues, I found several tickets with the problem but none of them was commented on or even resolved.

I was giving up on SSL and started rollback, but I only returned the Zabbix server config to HTTP (and restarting zabbix server), nothing else was rolled back, yet that made the trick.

/etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf

+ WebServiceURL=http://zabbix.ip:10053/report

So despite the apache server has SSL redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS, the scheduled report is working beautifully again.



SSL for Zabbix on Apache
====================

sudo yum install mod_ssl
adding the next three lines to /etc/httpd/conf.d/zabbix.conf :

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Hello, I'm new to zabbix and I think I have the same problem, the company i work for pushed their certificate on zabbix server and now the frontend is served through https, I followed every config and solution out their and nothing is working since the web service is on http.. I just found your solution but I couldn't clearly understand the steps and config you did so if you could please explain them again. like did you reverse your server back to http at the end or kept it https and did the modifications on the zabbix.conf? and where exactly on the file did you put those lines?!

Hi Verde, thanks for what you posted has inspired me how to fix my issue.
From my site, I have updated the HTTPS and also got some problem here.( Got Empty PDF report)
resolved by ignored the SSL ： IgnoreURLCertErrors=1
regarding to the Webservice URL I think it has a specific port 10053 on http. and the redirections setting is affected on port 80 to port 443.
you can try access http://zabbix.ip:10053/report on your browser, it will not go to the https.

thanks again.

Hello, everyone,

I have carried out all the steps that have been indicated but now in the pdf file that arrives I get the following message

Possibly the session has expired or the password was changed.

Does anyone know how to solve it?
