How to change the SSL port
All: Is there any way I can change the default SSL port from 8443 to 443? Change the port attribute of the SSL connector in your server.xml file. And use port number 443. yup, I tried this. It doesn't work. I tried edits to server xml connector from 8443 to 443 - 443 port unresponsive after tomcat restart. Tried 8442 also. No joy. Only plays with 8443. There is another setting somewhere Please advise. Stephen Caine CommonGround Softworks, Inc. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: How to change the SSL port
Lannis, Check your tomcat log file. If tomcat could bind properly on the SSL port you mentioned, it should show up in the log file (one of the first lines on the top). If not (e.g. because the port is already in use), it will show you a bind error message there as well. If the log says that the port is fine, check for firewall, (etc.) on your box. At least, look at the port number that is specified in the log. It should say 443 if your changes to the server.xml are correct. Thank you, I will check this out and let you know.

Re: How to change the SSL port
Charles, What does netstat say about who's listening on which ports? Will check this out. Tried 8442 also. No joy. Only plays with 8443. There is another setting somewhere Really, there isn't. Sounds like you're not editing the server.xml file that's actually being used by your Tomcat instance. Thank you.

Re: Different JDBC sources?
Simon, As a relative Tomcat newbie, I can't find anything about how to use two different JDBC sources with the same codebase. I'd like to have two different URLs that use the same classes and JSP pages, but reference two different databases (test and production). Is there a standard way of achieving this? Shamelessly promoting our own product, you might want to take a look at Qilan. An OS X application, Qilan accesses multiple JDBC database sources and automatically creates all the necessary JSP code. The developer merely creates web pages (webtemplates), with or without specialized tags, then exports them to Tomcat/webapps. If you are using SQL, Qilan handles this as well.

Re: Does Tomcat work on dual processor systems?

Re: Tomcat/MySQL Application Update
Christopher, We have a servlet that is run locally on about 20 laptops. I am currently manually updating the application on each laptop about once per month. Can anyone suggest a method of updating an application running on both OS/X and Windows based machines that would check if a new version was available and then grab it via FTP, Rsync, or something? Or would it be easiest to put the application into a database record? Any help or pointers appreciated. One option, amongst many, is to store the application as a binary file in a database record. This would allow you to add other information to the record. A user could then, using a web page, download the file. Just a thought.

Re: suppress directory listing
Paul, My JSP app has a /images folder and Tomcat 5.5.9 happily serves up a directory listing of this: how can I suppress this? Just add a filed named, index.html, to the directory. You can put whatever you want in the file. I often put, Access Prohibited or some such thing.

Problems accessing the admin app
All, What 'used' to work is no longer working. Now when I attempt to access Tomcat (v5.5.7) admin app, I get the following message: Tomcat's administration web application is no longer installed by default. Download and install the admin package to use it. Attempting to access 'status', returns the following message: The requested resource (/manager/status) is not available. Can someone please offer some suggestions as to where and what to check. Does the home directory have to be named, Tomcat? If this is changed, where else does this change need to be made.

Re: Problems accessing the admin app
Eric, The admin app is no longer a part of the standard Tomcat download. You need to go download and install it. Obviously, you need to make the appropriate changes to conf/tomcat-users.xml Thank you, but the admin and manager app 'used' to work. In other words, I was able to access both of them without trouble until just a few days ago. Very mysterious.

Oracle Drivers that work with Tomcat 5.5.x
James, Is anyone else using Tomcat, Oracle Java Studio Creator together? How did you do it? We use Qilan, an Mac OS X web application. We routinely access Oracle with the Oracle thin class12 JDBC driver via Tomcat. We have no problem and are able to connect and run SQL. Qilan, by the way, generates JSP/SQL using a graphical interface that is devoid of syntax. A good thing.

Installing SSL
All, I have reviewed the man pages and java.sun.com docs for keytool. I have used keytool to import a certificate from a Certificate authority. Keytool seems to be lacking the option to import an entire prexisting private/public key pair into a JKS format keystore. Specifically I have a RSA private Key and public key files from an existing SSL enabled site. I would like to use the same keypair for a Tomcat served site. Keytool will import the public key, but gives a parsing error when trying to import the RSA private key. I am using OS X 10.4.1 (Tiger Server) and Tomcat version 5.5.7. Any assistance is appreciated.

Re: Installing SSL
Ike, You may use KeyTool GUI version 1.6. This has been a life-saver to me. It works with different KeyStore formats and also lets you Import Key Pairs. Google for it, it is a windows-based keytool gui. Thank you. I'll try this out. Hopefully, they have a version for OS X.
