Modifying e-mail Notification URL ?

I have alfresco 4.2.e Community edition installed on my Debian test environment server. I have a domainname designated for the server and currently using a reverse proxy via Nginx to enable SSL (https://) using the following settings within nginx:

server {
        listen 443;
        server_name alfresco.companyname.com;
        ssl                     on;
        ssl_certificate         /etc/ssl/certs/alfresco.companyname.com.crt;
        ssl_certificate_key     /etc/ssl/private/alfresco.companyname.com.key;
        rewrite ^/$ /share;

        location / {
        root /opt/alfresco-4.2.e/tomcat/webapps/share/;
        proxy_pass https://localhost:8443;

        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
        }
        }
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Basically i want users to be able to access the site internally and externally which is working fine so far, all they have to do is type in alfresco.company.com into the url bar of their browser.

Now the problem:
When i start a workflow and check the email notification checkbox it sends out an email (as intended) but the link is… not optimal, this is what i am receiving:

https://alfresco.companyname.com:8080/share/page/task-edit?taskId=activiti$245

This is obviously somewhat breaking things. Is there any way on how I could remove the ":8080" from the url?
I have checked the forums and some suggestions have been to edit the email notifications code itself which would be this part within the wf-email_de.html.ftl file if i am not mistaken:

<#if args.workflowPooled == true>
                                                <p>Klicken Sie auf diesen Link um die Aufgabe einzusehen:</p>
                                                <p><a href="${shareUrl}/page/task-details?taskId=${args.workflowId}">${shareUrl}/page/task-details?taskId=${args.workflowId}</a>
                                             <#else>
                                                <p>Klicken Sie auf diesen Link um die Aufgabe zu ändern:</p>
                                                <p><a href="${shareUrl}/page/task-edit?taskId=${args.workflowId}">${shareUrl}/page/task-edit?taskId=${args.workflowId}</a>
                                             </#if>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

What i do not understand is where the ${shareUrl} value is defined/set and where i coudl edit this so the ":8080" is removed.
I welcome any and all suggestions.

Kind regards,
Alex

Hi, This URL is being generated from properties that are defined in your- alfresco-global.properties

You can change below properties as per your requirement and accordingly URL will be generated.

alfresco.context=alfresco
alfresco.host=my.host.com
alfresco.port=8080
alfresco.protocol=http

share.context=share
share.host=my.host.com
share.port=8080
share.protocol=http

If you need to understand detail code then, Please check below code

1)MailActionExecuter is responsible to send Share email notification
2)And this class process FTL template and gets URL from SysAdminParams and which basically refers above properties.

Hope it helps!
