You must enable HTTPS function of the web server. your browser------(HTTP, default port 80) --->|Web server |------(HTTPS, default port 443)--->|
You din't enable this HTTPS function. That's why the bowser returns the error messages (site cannot be found). Imagine that you have a house (web site) with two doors (HTTP & HTTPS) If you don't open the HTTPS door, no one can get in your house (through HTTPS door) to get anything. (Althought they can get into your house through HTTP door) -----Original Message----- From: Murphy, Todd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 9:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: problem creating a PDF using https Greetings, I'm seeing an issue when using https that I'm hoping for some advice on. I have a servlet that returns content to the browser window (IE5.5) in PDF format. This works great using http, but fails with the following message when I switch to SSL: Internet Explorer cannot download <filename> from server. Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. pDFList = (pDFList) custExtension.getInvoiceDetailPrint( invoiceNumber ); ServletOutputStream sout = response.getOutputStream(); response.setContentType( "application/pdf" ); response.setHeader( "Content-disposition", "inline; filename = example.pdf" ); BufferedOutputStream bos = null; bos = new BufferedOutputStream( sout ); for ( int i=0; i<pDFList.size(); i++ ) { bos.write( pDFList.get( i ); } if ( bos != null ) { bos.flush(); bos.close(); } In the servlet snippet above, pDFList contains an ArrayList of lines in the PDF. Can anyone provide insight into what I may need to get this to work within https? Thanks!
