Hello there,

After configuring the dashboard according to http://docs.ceph.com/docs/mimic/mgr/dashboard/#enabling-the-object-gateway-management-frontend  to use SSL and port 8443 (which works fine) I decided to use port 8443 for the API.

It seems that using port 8443 for the API causes the following issue:

2019-07-08 17:26:55.172 7f2f45f66700  0 mgr[dashboard] RGW REST API GET timed out after 45 seconds (url=http://th-dev-ceph-mon-tc01.priv.tgho.nl:8443/?format=json).
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/ceph/mgr/dashboard/rest_client.py", line 377, in do_request
    url, headers=self.headers, params=params, auth=self.auth)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 476, in get
    return self.request('GET', url, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/ceph/mgr/dashboard/rest_client.py", line 39, in request
    return super(TimeoutRequestsSession, self).request(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 464, in request
    resp = self.send(prep, **send_kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/sessions.py", line 576, in send
    r = adapter.send(request, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/adapters.py", line 433, in send
    raise ReadTimeout(e, request=request)
ReadTimeout: HTTPConnectionPool(host='th-dev-ceph-mon-tc01.priv.tgho.nl', port=8443): Read timed out. (read timeout=45)

I then used another port for API: ceph dashboard set-rgw-api-port dashboard.8080

Furthermore, From the dashboard perspective, clicking on Object Gateway ⌄   then clicking either on Daemons / Users / Buckets  I always get the following message:

Please consult the documentation on how to configure and enable the Object Gateway management functionality.

I have also attached a screenshot

Any advice is much appreciated!  What am I missing?
