Things are working fine with just Tomcat (4.1.21) but adding Apache & SSL into the mix causes a problem I don't understand.
When you visit the webapp's "root" URL with no filename: https://somehost.com/webapp/ You actually end up at this URL http://somehost.com:443/webapp/index.jsp Which produces an "Error 400 Bad Request". I want to blame it on Apache, since it does work *without* Apache, but I'm pretty sure that the 'index.jsp' is getting added due to the <welcome-files> list in the web.xml file. Does anyone know what is causing the url to change from https:// to http://...:443? This does _not_ happen in a different webapp where the welcome page is index.html (rather than .jsp). -- Wendy Smoak Applications Systems Analyst, Sr. Arizona State University PA Information Resources Management
