[opencms-dev] Serving JSP generated content under SSL

Thanks Ivan,

I read your contributions to the list with interest.

I have implemented your suggestions, and now I can view the output from
certain jsp's under SSL. Unfortunately, I can still also get them under non
SSL (http;//.....), and when clicking on the jsp name from within opencms
(both in the online and offline projects) the output appears in a non SSL
window.

I am using my own form-based tomcat security manager (for the jsp's in
question) and that may have something to do with the problem (there is also
a servlet mapping in web.xml for this little app.), but I don't think so. I
think that I am still missing something in the opencms.properties config.
Any more thoughts?

Regards

Rod

Hi Rod,

I am using secure JSPs. I simply set export=https, which means that the
item will not be exported and will use SSL.

I set the equivalent of:

url_prefix_https=https://localhost:8443/${WEB_APP_NAME}/opencms
url_prefix_servername=http://localhost:8080

Everything seems to work fine.

Best wishes,
             Ivan

Subject: [opencms-dev] Serving JSP generated content under SSL

Hi List,

I'm using opencms5.0 Beta, running on tomcat 4.0.2. I use jsp's to
generate
dynamic content, and therefore the export property for all pages is set
to
false. However, I now want one part of the site to be served under SSL.
There are no html pages in this section - all content is generated by
jsp's.


Has anybody configured opencms to serve jsp's under SSL? I know that
opencms.properties has parameters for SSL, but they appear to relate to
exported content, and as I am using jsp's, none are exported
(statically).
Even adding these properties as below to opencms.properties does'nt
appear
to work:

url_prefix_https=https://localhost:8443/${WEB_APP_NAME}/value/view_recor
d

url_prefix_servername=http://localhost:8080

If I browse to https://my_server:8443/value/view_record/record.jsp I'm
presented with an Apache 404 - Not Found error. However, the content is
still accessable via http. 

Any ideas or clues would be very much appreciated.

Rod
