Handling wildcard domains in Tomcat 8.0

2017-03-03 Thread Nick Johnson 
Greetings,

I have observed that with the default configuration where the  name
is 'localhost', Tomcat will change the Host and X-Forwarded-Host headers to
the IP address of the local machine.  For my use case, this is highly
undesirable behavior, because the hostname is meaningful to my application
(but one application needs to handle all possible hosts).

I've used the  entry to convince it not to change the Host headers
for one FQDN; however, I see that wildcard support in  doesn't exist
prior to Tomcat 8.5.  As I'm using a hosted service which provides Tomcat
8.0, I'm trying to find a workaround for this problem in Tomcat 8 if I can.

Is there any way to have Tomcat 8.0 have a single virtual host handle all
of a wildcard domain, or, barring that, is there a way to get it to pass
through the Host header, unchanged, to the default Host (effectively
directing ALL traffic at the default Host, unchanged, regardless).

And it's using a non-standard port:

https://webadvisor.cornerstone.edu:8443/WAPROD/WebAdvisor?TYPE=M=CORE-WBMAIN=9075473998

A plain "https://whatever/; URL requires that your SSL server use
port 443 (natively, via proxy, iptables, etc.)

Exactly. An ELContext is being created so that listener should fire.

Just wanted to clarify here.  Are you saying that it is correct to
assume that each tagfile invocation should be accompanied by a
ElContextListener.contextCreated() call? or would there be some other
event handler we’d have to hook into for ElContext’s used by tagfiles?

Can you be a bit more specific ? what /does/ happen in that case ?


If
I take out https and replace it with http the page loads and it uses https.


That would tend to indicate that there is already some form of redirect 
happening.



Suggestion : use a browser with a plugin/add-on allowing you to trace and follow the real 
exchanges between browser and webserver (even the ones you don't normally see).

In Firefox, the Web Developer Extension provides a "Network Inspector" that may 
be useful.
For older IE, there exists a "Fiddler2" extension.
Google Chrome has it built-in ("More tools").

Then I suspect that supporting this would require changes in Apache
Commons Daemon which is what Tomcat uses to start the Windows service.

It would probably be quicker for you to run Tomcat from the command line
to get the debugging information you require - assuming you have a
one-off need. If you want ongoing monitoring then Daemon changes is
would be the better option.
