So I've been working on this issue some more and I have some additional newbie questions that I'm hoping someone can help me with....

I decided to delete the authentication certificate to verify that thats what's causing my issue so I cleared out my keystore.

My Slide server.xml file settings are as follows:

<!-- Define a non-SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
<Connector port="80"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="443" acceptCount="100"
debug="0" connectionTimeout="20000"
disableUploadTimeout="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8"/>
<!-- Note : To disable connection timeouts, set connectionTimeout value
to 0 -->

<!-- Define a SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443 -->
<Connector port="443"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" keystorePass="319main"
acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" URIEncoding="UTF-8"/>

My web.xml file settings are:

<security-constraint>
 <web-resource-collection>
   <web-resource-name>DAV resource</web-resource-name>
     <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
       <http-method>COPY</http-method>
       .
       .
       <http-method>POLL</http-method>
       <http-method>NOTIFY</http-method>
     </web-resource-collection>

     <auth-constraint>
       <role-name>root</role-name>
       <role-name>guest</role-name>
       <role-name>user</role-name>
   </auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<user-data-constraint>
<description>Constrain the entire application to force use of HTTPS</description>
 <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>

When I attempt to start the Tomcat Server I get the following errors:

at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSESocketFactory.acceptSocket(JSSESocketFactory.java:113) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.PoolTcpEndpoint.acceptSocket(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:368) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:549) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:683)

However, if I generate a keyfile: "keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA", and start Tomcat, this error goes away and the Tomcat Server starts.

Questions: Am I not able to start Tomcat with SSL enabled without having the authentication certificate generated? Is there anyway to get around this? If not, could anyone help me with my original issue below (which I am eventually going to have to address anyways =))?

Thanks much!

Subject: Slide and Secure Site Access (https)


Hi, I'm having some problems accessing a secure site and would appreciate any assistance anyone could give me. I'm a newbie here, so please bear with me.

When trying to connect using the Slide client run.bat, the following error is occurring:

[ Slide ] $ open https://localhost/slide/files
connect https://localhost/slide/files/
Error: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun .security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid ce
rtification path to requested target
[ Slide ] $

However, if I try to connect via Internet Explorer, I don't have any problems (I am able to connect and see the authentication certificate as expected).

Another issue that I'm running into is that when trying to build the project using NetBeans, it is returning an error that it can't find the documents it needs (https://localhost/slide/files/Documents), even though they are out there. I'm assuming these two issues are related...

These error started occurring after adding the following authentication info in my jakarta-slide-2.1-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\slide\WEB-INF\web.xml file:

 <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
       <web-resource-name>Entire Application</web-resource-name>
       <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <user-data-constraint>
<description>Constrain the entire application to force use of HTTPS</description>
       <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
    </user-data-constraint>
  </security-constraint>

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Jeanna
