Hi Bill,
Thanks for your answer. I've tried to download the source code for
Tomcat 5.5.23, but I can't find a JIO Connector. Is JIO an abbrevation
for something? Can you point me to a place, where I can find the source
code and possibly make my own patch?
regards,
kews

Hi,
...unfortunately I never get that far where I can catch the exception.
The exception is thrown within Tomcat and in my application code.
(I'll assume there's a rather critical "not" missing from the last
clause in the above sentence.)
Of course - NOT in my application code :-)
If the client refuses the certificate or otherwise breaks the connection
during the SSL negotiation, no servlet has been selected to receive the
message, so there's no one to deliver the exception to. The servlet
spec doesn't seem to have any notion of container-oriented error pages,
so I think you're out of luck without custom code inside Tomcat.

This is OK - but how do I put custom code into the Tomcat? I've already
coded a custom realm for the purpose of verifying the certificate - could
I use this realm to catch the exception?
Nope. The realm only gets called after the client sends the cert. If she
cancels, then TC just returns an error. You could use a Valve to see if
this has happened, but the socket has already been shutdown by this time (at
least with the JIO connector), so you can't send anything back to the
client.
I seem to remember that there is a patch in BZ for 5.5.x to modify the JIO
connector to handle this (but I'm too lazy to look it up :). I don't know
the APR connector well enough to know how to make the same type of
modification there.
