Title: Captive Portal - Redirecting from HTTPS stucks
Post by: Visioner on October 15, 2015, 12:31:15 pm
Hi,

I´m still trying to resolve the following problem for 2 days  :o:

The System is a fresh installed OPNSense 15.7.16 with activated captive cortal on OPT1. Everything is working fine. If I call a http://www.thisisaurl.com site, the Portal Login Page appears and when I put in a voucher code it works an I can surf the net.
But when I want to surf a secured https://www.thisissecureurl.com url the browser stucks and doesn´t display the portal login page. On chrome-Browser it stucks for 20-30 sec. then chrome redirects itself to the "gstatic.com" url (not secured) and then the Portal login page appears.

What am I doing wrong? Is it a bug or a feature...

Greets, Holger

Hi Holger,

It's very likely a bug, we're in the process of completely rewriting captive portal because of various issues and the current quality of the code behind it.

Soon we will release development packages with the new code in it.

Cheers,

Ad

The old captive portal has been removed in favour of the new implementation in the development version already. At this point it offers rudimentary functionality, but Ad is working on it relentlessly to make it just as powerful, hopefully having maintainable code that works reliably. Any help in testing the new captive portal is welcome.

Was your proxy running in transparent mode when this happened?
