[JENKINS-64933] Configure Systems - Apply and Save not working with tomcat
Solution tried :-
1) Under Configure Global security --> CSRF Protection -->Enable proxy compatibility( Tick marked Enabled). - Didn't work so disabled with below command. 2) hudson.security.csrf.GlobalCrumbIssuerConfiguration.DISABLE_CSRF_PROTECTION = true - Even after this also didn't work. 3) Installed the Strict Crumb Issuer plugin. Enabled this plugin and uncheck Check the session ID from its configuration (Under Jenkins Configure Global Security). 4) Restated the Jenkins.

added a comment - Any help would be much appreciated My best suggestion is to not try to run Jenkins under tomcat. Run it as a separate application so that you don't need to wrestle with Tomcat configuration.
If you need a reverse proxy between the user and Jenkins, consider nginx, Apache, HAProxy, or Squid as described in reverse proxy configuration.
We have been running our jenkins under tomcat for last 10 years until we upgrade our jenkins from 2.235.5 (LTS) to 2.263.1-LTS we had no issue.
Sure we will consider to move out of tomcat.
Nginx reverse proxy side seems no issues, because i have tested without nginx reverse proxy even in that too facing same problem.
it looks CSRF is causing issue with tomcat. still digging. hopefully will sorted out.

Tested with Jenkins - 2.235.5-LTS and with same version of apache-tomcat-9.0.43 here there is no issue.
