I found out jboss uses a hybrid of Tomcats server.xml file and its own central way of setting ports for all its services. The file for central port settings in jboss 5.1.0.ga is /server/default/conf/bindingservice.beans/META-INF/bindings-jboss-beans.xml, but its faily obscure. Inside the bindings-jboss-beans.xml theres a piece of XSLT that transforms and overwrites the Connector tag from the server.xml file. The XSLT works from a base port and theres no direct mention of 8443 which is why I could find the config with "find . -exec grep 8443 ...". Some of the XSLT transformation wont match the connector tags in server.xml if the ports have been changed in server.xml and I found lots of posts from people trying that approach - all in all it looks like an extremely flaky way of controlling ports centrally but maybe its just because im doing it wrong. This is what worked for me: Change this line in bindings-jboss-beans.xml : <xsl:attribute name="redirectPort"><xsl:value-of select="$portHttps" /></xsl:attribute> To: <xsl:attribute name="redirectPort"><xsl:value-of select="443" /></xsl:attribute> (I believe this breaks the general jboss port settings based on having a single base port from which other ports are calculated) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
