The best way to test locally is to change IP for the domain. To do that, modify the hosts file in [windows]/system32/drivers/etc

Sure. I haven't figured out a good way to test https locally (as it requires the url to match up with the SSL domain) so hopefully someone else can chime in there. We also do https testing in our test environment.

As far as what to do within Stripes, we created an interceptor that determines if the URL is https or not. The HttpServletRequest provides methods for that.

We also use Tomcat startup variable (via Tomcat config) to say if the application will force https at runtime. The benefit of this is so you can easily turn the behavior on/off by just changing the variable and restarting the app server.

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for the excellent info. Apache hasn't even come into the
    mix yet Tim so I think I'd just like to get it working locally on
    tomcat first.

    Adam, when you say:


    /"You should force all your requests to https to ensure that no
    one can change the url from a secure page to a non-secure page."
    /
    Can you explain on how you actually do this?

    thanks again guys,
    Brian

        If you're in a secure area make sure it's always secure. Are
        you performing any SSL offloading at Apache? I have found that
        offloading SSL at the Apache HTTPD front end to be
        significantly easier to manage than in Tomcat/WebLogic/[pick
        container]

        Hey Brian,

        You should force all your requests to https to ensure that no
        one can change the url from a secure page to a non-secure
        page.   Then you can add a Stripes Interceptor that checks if
        the request requires https or not and allow the ones that
        don't to pass through.  Keep in mind that "switching" between
        http and https isn't really possible if you intend to use a
        session variable on the server side.  Browsers create a new
        session id when you switch between the two, even if the rest
        of the url is the same.

        - Adam

        Hi guys,

        I have a stripes webapp that I would like to add SSL support
        for in a few pages only.

        I've come from a struts background where we had ssl-ext as an
        extension which simplified this. I've also searched the
        archives and come across
        http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-239 and some
        questioning threads about this topic none of which have been
        comprehensively resolved to me.

        Can someone point me at a solution/approach to securing a few
        pages in stripes and switching between http and https?

        cheers,
        Brian
