HTTPS Settings is disabled in freshly started artifactory-cpp-ce - how do I enable it?

Following the instructions for starting Artifactory Community Edition I can launch an artifactory instance like this:

docker run --name artifactory -d -p 8081:8081 -p 8082:8082 docker.bintray.io/jfrog/artifactory-cpp-ce:latest

Afterwards I can log in as admin in the web UI on http://localhost:8082. The instructions recommend setting up an inverse proxy and the documentation says "To configure a reverse proxy, in the Administration module, select Artifactory | HTTP Settings". Unfortunately this is not possible as the "HTTP Settings" menu item is grayed out:

It is unclear to me why it is grayed out and what I can do to enable it. The tooltip just says [object Object] which seems like a bug, but it is also possible that this feature is just not part of the Community Edition of Artifactory.

HTTP Settings is not supported in Artifactory Community Edition. That said, you may want to check out the free-tier option for testing this configuration and additional features at: https://jfrog.com/start-free

Regarding the [object Object] tooltip message, I want to thank you for the screenshot as it helped clarifying the issue. I had taken note of it and will open a task for fixing it.

Check first if there is a no_proxy environment variable set which could influence the HTTP settings availability (a bit as in issue 67).

But also consider deploying Artifactory in a Kubernetes environment (included with any Docker Desktop setup), using the jfrog/charts artifactory-cpp-ce.

That would come directly with:

  • JFrog Artifactory CE for C++
  • an optional Nginx server
  • an optional PostgreSQL Database
  • and optionally expose Artifactory with Ingress Ingress documentation
