Subject: Problem with setting up an SSL secure page
Dear all,
I am currently designing a final year project for my University course and I
am having problems getting a working SSL connection. I have Tomcat set up
and working fine, but when it comes to accessing a page over the https
setup, I am having no luck.
Firstly a few technical details. I am using Windows XP Home, with Internet
Explorer 6.0.2900.2180. I am using the latest Java installation, jdk
1.5.0_05 and so the JSSE comes installed with that. I'm using Tomcat 5.0,
the latest installation available (it's only been installed on my system for
the last few weeks). I have McAffe Security Centre installed but the
problem occurs even with this turned off.
Now the problem. I have followed word by word the set up instructions in
the Tomcat manual. I have created the certificate and verified it using the
command line. I have altered the server.xml file to include the path
"keystorePath="D:/FYPCode/keystore" "where I have copied the keystore to.
I've done everything. Yet when I type https://localhost:8443 in the browser
window I get nothing. When using IE it takes ages to search for the page,
then eventually I get "This page cannot be displayed" and in Mozilla I get a
message after a couple of minutes saying the page has timed out and get left
with a blank page. So I can't load the page up at all.
I've tried everything I can think of to get it to work. I have 3 different
books on this subject and I've followed the instructions in every one to try
and get this to work. Nothing has worked. I did a Google search using as
many different combinations of words I can think of but the only help I get
is for Tomcat 3 and the old JSSE installation. So I'm lost. I did even
think about installing the JSSE 1.3 to see if that had an effect, as I can't
find any of the jar files that are mentionned in that area. However, I felt
it best to ignore that as it says.
So as you can see I've tried everything I can think of. Nothing as worked.
If anyone can help me I would be extremely grateful.
Many thanks
Mark Whitby
