hi, i'm trying to redirect all http requests to port 8080 to https requests on port 8443.
this works perfectly if i specify the full pathname of the request. for example: http://localhost:8080/index.html is redirected to: https://localhost:8443/index.html however, if i enter: http://localhost:8080/ and the welcome-file for the default webapp is set to index.html, tomcat does not redirect to: https://localhost:8443/index.html as i would expect, the client just hangs until the connection times out. following are the welcome-file and security-constraint entries in my $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml file: <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> <security-constraint> <web-resource-collection> <web-resource-name>Everything</web-resource-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </web-resource-collection> <user-data-constraint> <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee> </user-data-constraint> </security-constraint> thanks for your help. dan. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
