Jürgen Weber commented on JSPWIKI-212:
--------------------------------------
I guess
* most JSPWiki installations are intranet, so no need for SSL
* if you have JSPWiki on the internet, you will have it listen on port 80, but
you won't run Tomcat as root, so you use Apache and mod_jk, and Apache does the
SSL stuff.
> transport-guarantee CONFIDENTIAL should be removed from web.xml

> Key: JSPWIKI-212
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-212
> Project: JSPWiki
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Authentication&Authorization
> Affects Versions: 2.6.2
> Environment: apache-tomcat-6.0.16
> Reporter: Jürgen Weber
> Priority: Minor
>
> The default web.xml of JSPWiki contains two times
> <user-data-constraint>
> <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
> </user-data-constraint>
> for container managed authorization.
> But by default Tomcat has not switched on SSL, and trying to log in to
> JSPWiki you get
> Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8443.
> By default the user-data-constraint element should be removed as it makes
> activating container managed authorization unnecessarily difficult.
> Especially as it is not easy or obvious to notice the connection between the
> cited error message and the user-data-constraint element.
