under standalone JRUN. By configuring and running the SSLService in
JRUN I was able to execute a secure AMF call over HTTPS.
It seems that there is an issue between Apache and JRun. I'm not
sure if it's an issue in the communication, or if it's an issue in
my configuration. I'm looking into the configuration of the
mod_jrun20.so. It's odd that I get some of the messages in the JRun
console window when going over HTTPS through Apache. It's apparent
there is communication established between the two.
Has anyone else gotten HTTPS->Apache->JRun->SecureAMF to work???
