CAST HIGHLIGHT - Upgrade - contextPath is not being respected for Password reset links and Report Export Links

After a Highlight to a higher version Upgrade user reported that the contextPath is not being respected for Password reset links and Report export links. 

Upon checking the highlight.properties file, the following lines are present:
hl.contextPath=Highlight-Portal
highlight.rooturl=https://xyz.com

 

Workaround or Action Plan

Providing the proxy configuration as shown below: 

highlight.rooturl=https://xyz.com/Highlight-Portal

Here including the context path in these links works. 

Relevant Apache config:
ProxyPass "/Highlight-Portal" "https://xyz.com:8080/Highlight-Portal"
ProxyPassReverse "/Highlight-Portal" "https://xyz.com:8080/Highlight-Portal"

Therefore https://xyz.com/#Export/PPT/download/36 is not a valid link and errors out. However, https://xyz.com/Highlight-Portal/#Export/PPT/download/36 does work.
