Error description

  • "Re-enabling HTTP access in Business Automation Workflow
    temporarily"
    (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS8JB4/com.ibm.w
    bpm.imuc.doc/topics/tconnect_http.html) might be misinterpreted
    to mean that re-enabling unencrypted HTTP access to a Business
    Automation Workflow web application is possible and supported.
    In fact, AdminTasks were introduced for backwards compatibility
    and allow switching back to a mixed state in which some web
    modules enforce HTTPS traffic but others are still available
    over unencrypted connections.
    
    There is no supported way to enable unencrypted HTTP traffic for
    the Process Admin Console, Workflow Center (formerly the Process
    Center Console) or current implementations of IBM Process
    Portal. However, SSL offloading that uses httpsIndicatorHeader
    can allow unencrypted traffic from an intermediary web server to
    Business Automation Workflow.
