Apache web server's SSL certificate was already configured by our client so i did't ve to configure anything on apache. But we did configure SSL on tomcat.
When redirecting, redirect through apache web server's port instead of tomcat's port, because now your requests are being processed by apache web server not tomcat. I also made this mistake of redirecting to tomcat's ports whenever switching between SSL to Non-SSL ports. We are using tomcat 5.5.9. -----Original Message----- From: jfc100 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, June 04, 2005 4:27 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: apache2+mod_jk + ssl: howto faisal wrote: >i used mod_jk2 when i was integrating tomcat with apache2. i also tried my >hands on mod_jk and i find mod_jk2 a bit simpler of the two. > I have been using mod_jk2 to forward requests on the httpd2 web server to tomcat4 successfully - but this was before I tried to implement SSL. Now that I am looking at how to configure things, I read that jk2 is no longer supported and that all the new features unique to jk2 have been included in jk.
