How to Resolve Non-SSL Login Failures After Successfully Cloning SSL-Enabled EBS 12.2.13

ISSUE:

After Adcfgclone appsTier for a newly cloned ebs 12.2.13 environment from an SSL-enabled ebs precloned stage backup prevents me from logging in to non-SSL EBS login URL, despite it was completed 100% successfully without any error.

CAUSE:

EBS Context file variable s_enable_sslterminator was empty and was required to be changed as shown below:

It was discovered that the EBS App Context file was having below entry only and
Even after changing the required parameters in the context file, Switching all https to http did not disable SSL and the URL still rerouted to https.

From – >>> http://ebsclone.aot.sa:8010/OA_HTML/AppsLogin
Redirecting to –>> https://ebsclone.aot.sa:4443/OA_HTML/AppsLocalLogin.jsp

SOLUTION:

The ssl_terminator variable value in the context value tags needs to be included as shown below:

From:
<sslterminator oa_var=”s_enable_sslterminator”/>
to
<sslterminator oa_var=”<s_enable_terminator”>#</sslterminator>

After updating Context file, stopped EBS App Services, run autoconfig and restart the App Services Resolved the NON SSL URL redirection.
