HTTPS Links behind AWS Load Balancer

I really tried many Solutions to get my site work on Amazon AWS. There is only one last thing i can not solve. Some of my links are still “http://”-links and i dont know how to get them right.

My Setup:

  • Drupal 8.6.10 running on an EC2-Instance managed via Beanstalk
  • the Load-Balancer is managing the access and has two open ports (http/80 and https/443) directing to the ec2-instance via http (port 80)
  • the ssl-certificate is configured
  • my domain has the correct dns-config directing to xxx.eu-central-1.elasticbeanstalk.com
  • settings.php includes the following lines 
     $settings['reverse_proxy'] = TRUE;      $settings['reverse_proxy_addresses'] = array($_SERVER['PROXY_ADDRESS']);      $settings['reverse_proxy_proto_header'] = 'https';      conf['https'] = TRUE;      $_SERVER['HTTPS']='on';
  • $_SERVER[‘PROXY_ADDRESS’] is assgned to ‘xxx.eu-central-1.elasticbeanstalk.com’ by beanstalk
  • .htaccess includes the following lines:
     RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off      RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https      RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

The affected places are:

  • in a twig: url(”)
  • in a php-file: fileentities->url();

All other links are nicely rendered as ‘https’-links. I would be really thankfull for any advice you could give me.

Best Regards,
