Did you include a security contraint element in your web.xml file? Something like this:
<security-constraint> <web-resource-collection> <web-resource-name>HTTPS for all of these pages of the application.</web-resource-name> <url-pattern>/secure/*</url-pattern> </web-resource-collection> <user-data-constraint> <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee> </user-data-constraint> </security-constraint> [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Real helpful ...
