SSL with Tomcat addon of xampp???
Posted: 19. February 2010 17:58
Pardon my English is not good.
I'm trying to enable ssl security in Tomcat addon of xampp, and i'cant. In Apache ssl works well but not in Tomcat.
I try first with the tomcat ssl how to:
1. Create a certificate keystore by executing the following command:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RS
2. Uncomment the "SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector"
But when i put in the browser https://localhost:8443 it remains loading.... .......
On the other side i found this information in tomcat ssl how-to:
It is important to note that configuring Tomcat to take advantage of secure sockets is usually only necessary when running it as a stand-alone web server. When running Tomcat primarily as a Servlet/JSP container behind another web server, such as Apache or Microsoft IIS, it is usually necessary to configure the primary web server to handle the SSL connections from users. Typically, this server will negotiate all SSL-related functionality, then pass on any requests destined for the Tomcat container only after decrypting those requests. Likewise, Tomcat will return cleartext responses, that will be encrypted before being returned to the user's browser. In this environment, Tomcat knows that communications between the primary web server and the client are taking place over a secure connection (because your application needs to be able to ask about this), but it does not participate in the encryption or decryption itself.
I think i have to configure some conf file in xampp but i don't know how.
Please i need some HELP!! Thank's in advance!!!! Please any IDEA.
