Tomcat ssl configuration error

[michael yue]

Hello,
For tomcat ssl configuration after i completed the setup,
I got these weird symbols when I go to
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8443/ in my browser.
The goes with http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8443/application/page.jsp and so on.

But when i put https as in https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8443/ in my browser.
i got page cannot be displayed.

Those xxx is just some example for URL.
Anyone face this problem before?

Hi,
for making SSL enabled in tomcat ,u need to edit the server.xml under conf folder. These are the steps


<!--
Uncomment this for SSL support.
You _need_ to set up a server certificate if you want this
to work, and you need JSSE.
1. Add JSSE jars to CLASSPATH
2. Edit java.home/jre/lib/security/java.security
Add:
security.provider.2=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider
3. Do: keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA
RSA is essential to work with Netscape and IIS.
Use "changeit" as password. ( or add keypass attribute )
You don't need to sign the certificate.

You can set parameter keystore and keypass if you want
to change the default ( user.home/.keystore with changeit )
-->
<!--
<Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector">
<Parameter name="handler"
value="org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler"/>
<Parameter name="port"
value="8443"/>
<Parameter name="socketFactory"
value="org.apache.tomcat.net.SSLSocketFactory" />
</Connector>
-->

try this out..

cheers

I have done all the steps u said already before I posted the original question. I can import the cert and the ssl seem to be working fine when i run catalina.sh run. But still the ssl pages cannot display.
