[users@httpd] mod_jk with https confiuration

[ravindra <ra...@btpsoft.com>]

Hi All,

 

            We have same web application in two tomcats(6), we are load
balancing through Apache2.2 using mod_jk.Now I want to access my application
securely, i.e, browser to apache I want to accept only https and from apache
to tomcats http. Something like this, here apache and tomcat are on the same
host.

            

    https(Strictly)                       http

browser <--------------------> Apache2.2 <-------------------->Tomcat6.0

 

 

To redirect http urls to https from browser , we need mod_rewrite and to
have ssl support we need to have mod_ssl . What are the other modules I need
to include. What is the ideal way to setup this ? 

 

Thank you, 

Ravindra.
