I've just confirmed that the below problem is "hidden" by Internet Explorer (e.g. the :443 is stripped off), so IE users don't see this. I test on Mozilla, and after a Tomcat Connector "redirectPort" occurs, my URL window looks like this:
https://my.server.com:443/my-page.jsp It should look like this (assuming redirectPort is set to 443, the default): https://my.server.com/my-page.jsp Can anyone confirm that what I'm seeing is a Tomcat "bad assumption" (I won't call it a bug just yet ;) )? This is more than a cosmetic problem; if "my-page.jsp" links to other JSP pages (e.g. using JSTL <c:out>), then the URL's generated will NOT have the ":443" appended, and my session context between the two pages is getting lost...

This seems to be throwing off session tracking later, since subsequent hyperlinks (to other JSP pages) don't have the ":443" in the URL. In any case, it's unnecessary and unsightly. How can I get redirectPort to not append ":443"? I tried leaving out the redirectPort directive, falling back on the default (which obviously must be 443), but it's still appending this string. Thanks, Bryan
