SSL Failure on Tomcat 5.5.12
I just installed Tomcat 5.5.12 on Windows XP (from the .exe install). I created and have a working webapp with servlets on the http port (80). I carefully followed the instructions on the apache tomcat website for setting up a SSL https connection. I followed it in every detail, creating my own certificate using keytool (as explained both on the apache site and right there in the server.xml file). In server.xml I set the http connector to port 80 and the https connector to port 443. All normal http requests work fine. But when I try to connect to https://localhost, the browser (Firefox) just displays "Loading" and ultimately I get a popup alert of "The connection to localhost has terminated unexpectedly. Some data may have been transferred." While the browser is "loading" I can bring up a Command Window and issue a netstat -a -n command and I can see that there is an established socket connection on port 443. But nothing happens. Any help is surely appreciated. By the way, o n a different PC (also Windows XP) I used netbeans (4.1) to develop a webapp, and on that I did the same SSL procedure and it worked perfectly. --thanks --Tony C. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Sending a lot of info the a jsp page
Hi Dola yes you can use POST for an unlimited amount of data but of course you'll need to set your http headers correctly, specifically the Content-Length header. -- Original message -- From: Dola Woolfe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hi, > > This question will reveal how little I know about > networking or http or something else. > > Basically I wrote an applet that sends data to a > servlet.

Within the element you must have the element, which can be any unique name you want, and the element which has the real class name. Then within the element you must have a which is the same as one of the names from the section, and you must have a element which tells Tomcat the url pattern that it will map to the identified servlet. Here is an example for a servlet called "Login": Login net.homeip.coconets.sessionpkg.Logout Login /Login - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: https difficulties w/ Tomcat5
I had the same problem with Tomcat 5.5.12. Finally someone told me to check the Tomcat 5.5\bin directory for a file called tcnative-1.dll (or something like that, I don't remember exactly). After I deleted that file, my SSL connections worked fine. -- Original message -- From: "Stevie G.

Re: Port 8443 won't become active
Hi Jeff, when I had this problem it was caused by the presence of a file named "tcnative-1.dll" in the ~/Tomcat 5.5/bin directory. When I removed that .dll file, everything worked as described in the Tomcat documentation for SSL. --Tony C. -- Original message -- From: "Jeffery G. Summers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hello!
