P.S if it were up to me, I wouldnt use IE for anything..been having too
many problems with IE and SSL, IE and struts, etc etc
Unfortunately, as a web-app developer, we have to cater to 80% of the
population that still uses IE !!! :)

We are running tomcat 5.5.16 on Fedora Core 4 OS. We just installed
apache2.0 as a front to serve the pages using the mod_jk connector. There
are 2 apps on tomcat (virtual hosting), one of which needs to be SSL
enabled (lets say app1 and app2, app2 is the one that needs to be SSL
enabled).
Everything seems to be working fine on FireFox, both apps can be accessed
fine. When we access www.app1.com pages are served as expected, and when
we access www.app2.com the browser detects the certificate and switches to
https
But things are not well when it comes to IE. www.app1.com works the same
as FF, and the app can be accessed. But when we try to access
www.app2.com, IE shows the certificate and asks if we would like to
proceed. When we click on 'Yes', the browser cannot find the app after
that and returns "Page cannot be displayed error". Also, directly
accessing the https site by using the URL https://www.app2.com:8443 works
fine on IE as well.
so its basically the switching from http to https for app2 that doesnt
seem to work.
This used to pop up all the time when more people were using TC 4 :). What
it happining is that IE gets confused easily when you redirect to to a
non-default SSL port. This is especially true if the next page that you hit
also does a redirect.
The solution is to use the default SSL port of 443 (either that, or don't
use IE ;-).
I dont understand why this works on FF but not on IE..!
I hope someone can shed some light on this. I can post the httpd.conf ,
server.xml and workers.properties files if that helps..
Thanks,
-Riz.
