Greetings! I have SSL working with a self-signed certificate on Tomcat 4.0 - on a Win2K box. The only "difficulty" I had was that the jsse jar files had to be placed in jre/lib/ext, as the "JSSE_HOME" variable did not work for me.
Now I am trying to move this work to Solaris. I have Tomcat 4.0.1 working well on a Solaris (SPARC) box. I duplicated the process of putting the jar files in the jre/lib/ext directory, and ***copied*** the self-signed certificate to the same directory (relative to CATALINA_HOME) as on the W2K box. I also appropriately edited server.xml. Starting Tomcat with the -debug parameter on the Solaris box, I found no errors. Likewise, examining the logs reveals no errors, BUT - when I try to access an html file using port 8443 (the same action worked on W2K - same directory structures and html files), I get "The page cannot be displayed". The page displays fine using port 8080. In other words, "http://xx.xx.xx.xx:8080/index.html"; works, but "https://xx.xx.xx.xx:8443/index.html"; does not. With the same certificate, directory structures, jar files (in the JDK/jre/lib/ext directory), server.xml, etc. on W2K, both work. Question: MUST you generate the certificate on the box you will use (or at least the OS)? I generated the certificate on the W2K box and just copied it (binary FTP) to the Solaris box.
