Installation issue - HTTPS connector always sends junk reply
Howdy.
I'm new to Tomcat, and I'm having a bit of trouble finishing a setup
for testing. I've "set up" the default installation - that is,
unzipped it and run the batch file - and it works very well. However,
the ride gets a bit bumpy when I try to enable HTTPS connections.
After generating the .keystore file and uncommenting the default port
8443 connector, Tomcat seems to start fine. The only notable difference
is that a new connector is created (that should be a good sign). When
I connect to my server at localhost using port 8443, though, it sends
me a small piece of garbage in return. It always seems to be the same
chunk of binary data; it looks like this (hexdump on x86):
"1503 0100 0202 0a". Connections to port 8080 continue to work as
advertised; connections to other (random) ports fail as expected.
I've followed the instructions on setting up SSL several times. I've
got a .keystore file in my home folder, and the HTTP connector is the
default included with the Tomcat 5 binaries (sans comments). I'm open
to the possibility that I'm repeatedly missing a step, of course.
I've tried Tomcat 5.0.25 and .27 on both Windows 2000 and Linux, using
IE and Firefox as clients; always the same results. The JVM is Sun's
1.4.2_04 on Linux, and 1.4.1_02 on Windows.
Thanks for any help,
Jason
