You can have tomcat automatically make redirects to https ( and whatever port is
configured in the "redirectPort" attribute of your
http Connecter - 443 usually ), you can add some constraints in web.xml. Try this
altered for whatever directories you want to be
https only :
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Some Directories</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/secure/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/checkout/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>
Beware now of issues with welcome-file-list redirects happening at the same time as
this one. You can end up with situations where
tomcat sends you to https on the http port. e.g. :
https://myserver.com:8080/secure.index.jsp
