Tomcat 3.2 SSL error:Error reading request

[Robert Oschwald]

Hi,   I'm currently stuck with my SSL enabling of tomcat 3.2 with a weird error message. As soon as I try to access SSL secured content, the following error occurs:   2000-12-15 05:23:51 - ContextManager: Error reading request R( /) 400 2000-12-15 05:23:51 - Ctx(  ): 400 R( /) null 2000-12-15 05:23:51 - Ctx(  ): Handler null null 2000-12-15 05:23:51 - Ctx(  ): IOException in: R( /) Socket closed 2000-12-15 05:10:57 - Ctx(  ): IOException in: R( /) Socket closed   After a while, the following exception is thrown:         at java.io.IOException.<init>(IOException.java:49)         at javax.net.ssl.SSLException.<init>([DashoPro-V1.2-120198])         at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:192)         at javax.servlet.ServletInputStream.readLine(ServletInputStream.java:138)         at org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpRequestAdapter.readNextRequest(HttpR equestAdapter.java:129)         at org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler.processConnection( HttpConnectionHandler.java:195)         at org.apache.tomcat.service.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:41 6)         at org.apache.tomcat.util.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:4 98)         at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:498)   I've compiled tomcat 3.2 with SSL support (SSLSocketFactory was compiled successfully) as described in the Tomcal-SSL-Howto document.   ALso, I've changed my jdk-1.3 (IBM) jre java.security file as described.   I had a problem adding my CERT to the keystore, where keytool always complained that the public keys are different between the stored and given key. I worked that around by deleting the keystore and let keytool create it during the CERT import. That worked.   I will now try it again with the SUN JDK 1.3, maybe the IBM jdk doesn't work.   Has anyone an idea what the problem is? Is this caused by a keystore problem reading my CERT or is there any hint you can give me?       Thanks in advance!     Robert
