Re: Who use Tomcat as a stand-alone server in production environment ?

Hello, What kind of security risks are there if I use tomcat over https (http connector is disabled). Would it be ok to assume that nobody can listen traffic between tomcat and browser? I do not pass any confidential information as url parameters (ie. all forms are using post method). Is it

basic auth does not work? ( 4.0.1 final and 4.0 latest nightly )

Yes, this is the current behaviour. Refer to earlier posts (by search). Current remedy is to use form instead (if appropriate) else revet back to 3.x. thanks, is there any time estimate of when it will start working again? with best wishes, Taavi -- To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL

Easiest way to handle this is create a page index.jsp and put it in your web application context, there you can keep your messages. Do you mean you have stopped the server or just took of a context? Now that I think of it I have no context defined for my web application. Ie. there is no
