Hello all I am stuck trying to set up SSL on Tomcat 8. I have tried all sorts of advice and still I cannot get it to work.
I attempted to use the method describe on this website: https://sysengineers.wordpress.com/2011/03/16/tomcat-automatic-redirect-https/ but I started to see the following errors in my catalina.2016-06.26.log file: WARNING [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.SetAllPropertiesRule.begin [SetAllPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Connector} Setting property 'SSLCertificateFile' to '/home/user/apache-tomcat-8.0.35/ssl/certificate.crt' did not find a matching property. 28-Jun-2016 10:44:20.495 WARNING [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.SetAllPropertiesRule.begin [SetAllPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Connector} Setting property 'SSLCertificateKeyFile' to '/home/user/apache-tomcat-8.0.35/ssl/certificate.key' did not find a matching property. So what I did was install openssl-devel and apr-devel and now those errors have disappeared, but when I try to browse to the web application or the IP of the server, I get the following error in the browser: took too long to respond. Try: - Reloading the page - Checking the connection - Checking the proxy and the firewall I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I set up my Connector in server.xml exactly the same way as the example in that website that I linked. Any suggestions will greatly be appreciated! Thanks! Sean
