GeoTrust finally came up with a kb article just last week that solves the problem where you have a certificate for your IIS server but want to run mid-tier on tomcat/catalina instead of IIS, and need to move the certificate over. This may help some of you, too.
https://knowledge.geotrust.com/support/knowledge-base/index?page=content &id=S:SO8019&actp=search&searchid=1204671504729 Now if I could just figure out how to get tomcat 5.5.26 to recognize the code block where you turn on SSL in the config.xml file - it works in 5.5.17 and 5.5.20, but not .26. Today support had me install 5.5.26 to solve some problems with the 7.1.00.002 mid-tier, and the only thing that didn't get better was the ability to implement SSL. This code block works on 5.5.17 and 5.5.20 but not 5.5.26. Huh?? <Connector port="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="C:\certfile.pfx" keystorePass="password" keystoreType="PKCS12" /> After activating the 8443 port with this (or a faked certificate like Will sent me instructions for), I can access http://localhost:8443/ but not https://localhost:8443/ - the browser times out on the latter. One step forward, two steps back! Any great ideas out there??
