Florian Holeczek commented on JSPWIKI-212:
------------------------------------------

{quote}
most JSPWiki installations are intranet, so no need for SSL

That's true for the content itself, but not username/password pairs.

> transport-guarantee CONFIDENTIAL should be removed from web.xml

>             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.
