Running servlet via SSL???
Hi Forum,
Is it possible to run/navigate to a servlet via an SSL connection? I have
Apache and Tomcat 4.x installed in RedHat 7.x and I can navigate (with
IExplorer) to a test servlet (which sends a hello message to standard
output) with the following call:
http://<server <http://<server> ip>:8080/<context>/servlet/<name of class>
But if I use https instead of http the servlet does not run. I have tried
to change the port to 43 and 8443 without success. Apache and Tomcat were
installed with their defaults settings so I am not sure if Tomcat is running
as stand alone or not.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Did you do the full SSL setup on Apache? You can't just switch from
http to https without doing all the configuration and having a SSL
virtual host setup.
RE: your question, yes, it is possible to use SSL, many people are doing
so. If you can be more specific about what you've done and what error
you're getting, perhaps we can be of more help.
