Believe me I was shocked! I was testing for other issues when I started noticing some odd behavior and had to dig deeper and pay attention to where the URL was going, thats when I noticed that it never went to https, and there were no certs on the server.

I tons of iPlanet, IIS and Apache experience, never really seen Tomcat used as a webserver in a production environment.

While Tomcat can be used as a web server, it is more commonly used as a servlet container behind a more robust web server like Apache. I use the Apache + Tomcat combination for my site development. My SSL is configured on Apace.

Consequently, I never installed SSL on Tomcat. However, the server.xml setup doesn't look too complicated. It certainly should not be an obsticle to a reputable company that wants to do business on the web.

In a climate of rampant internet fraud, I think the lack of such a facility on a so-called reputable site would send up red flags to most of your customers. You will certainly lose business because of this.

Subject: ssl certs

I have come to discover that there is a small problem with a web site I have
recently gone to work for. Now let me disclaimer this thing. They dont
take credit card but they do handle names and addresses and account login
So while its not horrible to me it is still unexceptable.


The site is all Java, tomcat is the app and web server, I have never dealt
with Tomcat as a web server so is it easy to setup tomcat to handle ssl
certs and https requests.  Any thing I have to watch out for?

thanks
