Tomcat Application on Port 443 or 8080?

Hi Experts:

My Apache+SSL is working now - thanks to you all. I checked it using 
https://www.kithany.com.

However, I have a small Application which contains JSP+Servlets which calls 
Oracle DB via JDBC. This application is working fine when I type 
http://www.kithany.com:8080/kithany/index.jsp but when I try HTTPS as 
https://www.kithany.com:8080/kithany/index.jsp it does'nt work - ie page 
does'nt shows up.

I know that HTTPS listens to port 443 and my Application(Tomcat+JBoss) 
listens to port 8080 - so how do I integrate both the ports to work 
together? Any useful information on above is appreciated.

THANKS!

find this in server.xml...

    <Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector"
               port="8443" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
               enableLookups="true"
        acceptCount="10" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
               useURIValidationHack="false">
      <Factory

               clientAuth="false" protocol="TLS"
               keystoreFile="C:\WINNT\Profiles\cparker\.keystore"
               keystorePass="changeit" />
    </Connector>

change 'port=8443' to 'port=443'.

Sure it's possible. I have not done that because I never needed
in that way.

But you certainly can do with the DNS Name Resolver and TC with
SSL 443 by configuring it. So anything with HTTPS will handled by
port listener 443 which will be your standlone TC. In that way
you do not need 8443. Form there you can do whatever you need
to do.

But for Tomcat running Stand Alone there still must be a way for SSL to work
w/o having to explicity say :8443 in the URL.

The recommend way is either you [1]configure Apache/HTTP(S)
and TOMCAT(TC) with connentor or [2]make a direct conection
to TC.

So the first case will be accessed as follows:

[1]    https://<domain>/<context>/<url-pattern>

        This will use the port # 443.

And the second case will be accessed as follows:

[2]    https://<domain>:8443/<context>/<url-pattern>

        This will use the port # 8443.

But I would not recommend the second scenario.

I have having the same issue.  I have apache 1.3 working on port 80 and
on port 443 with mod_ssl.  Accessing the example apps via http works
fine. From the https server I either get a 404.  How do I make the
settings from the mod_jk.conf file get imported into the virtual server
that is running the SSL enabled httpd?

I am looking in the archives, but I am not finding anything very
quickly.

If you're using the default ports that are set in Tomcat's "out of the
box" server.xml, 8080 is the port Tomcat standalone uses for direct
http communication.  This means that it's not going through Apache,
and it's not for https/SSL communication.  That explains why the first
one works and the second one doesn't.

Well, do you want to use Tomcat integrated with Apache, or Tomcat
standalone (or both)?  If you don't want to use Tomcat standalone, I
suggest you disable it's HTTP Connector -- you can do this by
commenting it out in server.xml.

Now, assuming you set up Apache+SSL for a reason, you probably want to
use that for your https communication.  That means the URL you should
use is:

https://www.kithany.com/kithany/index.jsp

This will go through Apache (on port 443, the default for https).  But
for this to work, that is, to get to Tomcat, you have to make sure you
have the proper configuration set up, mostly in terms of the connector
directives in your Apache httpd.conf file.  (You don't say what
connector you're using, perhaps it's mod_jk.)
