mod_webapp and SSL

[John Brayton <jb...@virtualsanity.com>]

Hi,

I wonder if someone could help me with a problem I'm running into.

I have an Apache server that accepts HTTP and HTTPS requests and 
forwards them to Tomcat running on the same machine.  If the browser 
requests a page via HTTP, it works as desired.  If the browser 
requests the page via HTTPS and the request is supposed to go to 
Tomcat, the server returns the following error (as an HTML page) to 
the browser:

     WebApp: Error 500
     (File: pr_warp.c Line: 438)

There is nothing Tomcat-specific in the Apache VirtualHost entries.

Everything works as expected if the browser requests the page via 
HTTPS directly from Tomcat (using an HTTPS request), but I'd like to 
route the requests through the Apache server.

I found some posts from mid-late 2001 regarding adding SSL support to 
mod_webapp.  Does this imply that requests simply cannot be routed 
through mod_webapp yet?

Config Info:
     -Mac OS X (10.1.3)
     -Apache 1.3.22
     -mod_ssl 2.8.5
     -OpenSSL 0.9.6b
     -Tomcat 4.0.3
     -mod_webapp 1.0

Any help would be appreciated -- even if just to say "that won't 
work", then I'll know.  :-)

Thanks!

John
