I'm somewhat sure that this check is server side only within your
Apache HTTPd and you only see the output of the result in your
browser. So if I understand your setup correctly, it's already BEHIND
your SSL termination and in theory the check is simply correct of :443
is not available at that place. So check your internal setup starting
from HTTPd's point of view if :443 is reachable or not.

I doubt that this check can be skipped using the web interface, so you
might try to change the config directly in the file
"data/params.json". Just search for "sslbase" in there and see what
happens.

Because you are coming from "outside" and are connecting to HAPROXY,
that's pretty likely a different starting point than what Bugzilla
does when it checks SSL on its own.

Check your browser when accessing Bugzilla very careful and have
especially a look at the development tools about redirects. If you
start :443, input username and password I guess you are afterwards
redirected by Bugzilla because of missing SSLBASE to :80. This makes
your browser warn about unsecured auth credentials in the end.

Even if you don't see those redirects, when your browser warns you,
check the domain and port of the page! It's very likely :80 instead of
:443 and the warning of the browser is correct in this case.

Without SSLBSASE, Bugzilla will render all output using URLBASE, so if
that is :80 in your case, the browser will make unsecured requests in
the end and warn you about that. When you don't want ANY :80 requests,
you might try changing URLBASE to HTTPS instead.

Don't think so, instead you should make sure that Bugzilla can resolve
DOMAIN:443 properly server side first.
