If you use Apache as a front end to Tomcat, you cannot use Tomcat
SSL. Tomcat SSL only works when you go directly to Tomcat (e.g., to its
port 8443 as given in default server.xml file). You can do it, but then
you do not need apache for anything.
If you are serving pages from Apache, and jsp/servlet requests go first
to Apache, and then, via connector to Tomcat, you have to use Apache SSL,
namely mod_ssl or apache-ssl. The mod_ssl is more modern.
You may want to look at my older installation logs for Tomcat at:
http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/apache
where I list jserv as connector (I switched to mod_jk for some time).
