Hello Chris,

If you're using Tomcat (or another servlet container that supports the JK protocol) this is quite easy to handle. First you need to set up two virtual hosts in your Apache config, a regular host listening on port 80 and an SSL host listening on port 443. Each of those virtual hosts is set to use mod_jk to forward to your Tomcat instance. By using mod_jk, all of the port stuff goes away from your URLs. Apache handles all the SSL stuff so Tomcat doesn't need to do it. And you should require no code changes, the scheme binding will just work.

Hope that helps

Yes, I think this is very helpful !

Thank you for pointing this out. At this time, my Apache is only using mod_proxy - I did not know how powerful mod_jk is in combination with Tapestry :)

So when using mod_jk the parasitic port ending mentioned in my initial posting will be gone ? Cool !

Together with Fernandos idea I now have plenty of options and keywords to play with.

I think I will start using this mod_jk-configuration to get things done and to accelerate the progress of my application - moving toward the filter solution for fine grained constraints.

So kudos to you and Fernando !

Thanks again,
Gerald <- very happy now :)
