Symfony2 behind ELB is redirecting to http instead of https

Question

Issue:

• User logs in with https://example.com/login
• Authentication is approved
• As configured in security.yml Symfony2 redirects u

Answer 1

The solutions above did not work for me. I added the following line of code (as suggested in Symfony2's docs http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/request/load_balancer_reverse_proxy.html#but-what-if-the-ip-of-my-reverse-proxy-changes-constantly) to my web/app.php:

Request::setTrustedProxies(array($request->server->get('REMOTE_ADDR')));

right after

$request = Request::createFromGlobals();

That solved the problem for me in Symfony 2.5.
