Short version: I can access Tomcat via SSL from IE6, but not from Mozilla 1.4/Netscape 7.1. Is this a known problem, and if so, what's the work-around?
Long version: I've installed Sun's Java Web Services Developer Pack 1.3 version of Tomcat 5 under Linux. I also created a self-signed certificate using the Java keytool, accepting the default keystore location and using the default "changeit" password. When I enable SSL (either by removing comment delimiters from the SSL Connector in the out-of-the-box server.xml, or by running the web-based admin tool) and restart Tomcat, there are no error messages in any log files. And I can access the SSL port with an https URL using IE6 from a Windows client. But Mozilla 1.4 and Netscape 7.1 (on the same Windows client I used for IE) both give a "The document contains no data." alert when I try to access the same URL, after a several second delay and a number of "Connecting"/"Connected" status messages. These browsers have had no trouble accessing other https URL's, so I'm assuming that it's a Tomcat issue. I have tried changing the server.xml Host name from localhost to my actual host name and changing the Factory protocol from TLS to SSL (based on something I saw in another SSL question). This had no apparent effect. I also tried using a trial Verisign-signed certificate, with the same results: IE6 can access the site, Mozilla cannot. What am I missing? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
