Issue Description
When trouble-shooting issues involving proxies, authentication, etc it is sometimes helpful to determine exactly what inbound HTTP header values are hitting your appserver prior to entering the TIBCO JasperReports® Server servlet-based webapp.
Resolution
Tomcat's AccessLogValve provides basic webserver-style logging of http requests.
Edit your tomcat's server.xml and add or adjust the AccessLogValve, for reference see https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/valve.html
In the example below i'm logging four potential HTTP headers in addition to typical items you'd prefer to have like url, time, ip, etc: host HOST X-Forwarded-Proto X-Forwarded-Host
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log" suffix=".txt"
pattern="%{host}i %{HOST}i %{X-Forwarded-Proto}i %{X-Forwarded-Host}ii %h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b" />A restart is required. The resulting logging in this example would be found in your /logs/localhost_access_log..txt
