Configuration Question
I am running Tomcat 5.5x on a Win2000 box.
I purchased a DNS name, and I have that configurated in the server.xml. So when a user hits my site like so: http://www.xxx.com it calls the site and all is good. But here is my problem. On some search engines for whatever reason, the url shows this: http://xxx.com leaving out the www. It still brings open the site, but there is a problem. My site runs all https, and when I registered my ssl certificate, it is under the http://www.xxx.com. And when the user hits the site without the 'www' it brings up a invalid certificate. It shows the lock, but it says it is not certified by verisign.
Any ideas why this is occuring, and any ideas to redirect the bad url to the good one?
Many thanks,

My configuration is the opposite -- the cert is for "example.com",
not "www.example.com". But I use a Filter to redirect any requests
for the "wrong" address to the preferred one.
HTH!

when a user hits my site like so: http://www.xxx.com it calls the site and
all is good. But here is my problem. On some search engines for whatever
reason, the url shows this: http://xxx.com leaving out the www. It still
brings open the site, but there is a problem. My site runs all https, and
when I registered my ssl certificate, it is under the http://www.xxx.com. And
when the user hits the site without the 'www' it brings up a invalid
certificate. It shows the lock, but it says it is not certified by verisign.

Adult sites run on tomcat now? :p
It is possible the search bots were misled by some header found in your
response. Is you tomcat service configured for www.xxx.com host or simply for
anyhost (in which case it might add a content-location of xxx.com in response
as it is tomcat's computer hostname).
Go to http://www.xxx.com/admin/, fill in username/password of admin and modify
the default host to respond only to alias www.xxx.com
Of course, requests in the form http(s)://xxx.com will not be responded
anymore. You could also, on a temporary basis, put a second Host entry for
alias xxx.com which will send a 'moved permanently' response.
