I confirmed it is an SSL issue, since opening up the Tomcat 8080 default 
connector and turning off the redirect allowed me to access CAS.  I 
installed my existing SSL certs into the JDK as per the instructions on 
the wiki, but I still can't get to the webapp.  I already have uPortal 
running on the server and its SSL works, so are there any other 
configuration points I can check?

Thanks!
