Hello, I have an application on standalone Tomcat that works fine with Konqueror and Mozilla, but not with Microsoft Explorer: it doesn't 'automatically switch' to https.
E.g. the page 'secretary.html' is security constrained (see web.xml fragment below). When i call the page in Konqueror or Mozilla as http://my.domain.net:8080/secretary.html, the page is shown after the login and the url in the location bar is https://my.domain.net:8443/secretary.html (everything is fine). But when i do the same in Explorer, the location bar shows http://my.domain.net:8080/secretary.html and it says 'page cannot be displayed'. At the other hand, when i call the protected page directly as https://my.domain.net:8443/secretary.html it works fine. any explanation for this behavior? cheers, dirk <security-constraint> <web-resource-collection> <web-resource-name>Secretary</web-resource-name> <url-pattern>/secretary.html</url-pattern> </web-resource-collection> <auth-constraint> <role-name>secretary</role-name> </auth-constraint> <user-data-constraint> <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee> </user-data-constraint> </security-constraint> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
