RE: Giving access to an html file in tomcat

IE uses some voodoo logic to decide when to show it's own error page or not. Anytime it get's something other than a HTTP 200 or 302, it looks at the HTML returned with it, and if it "seems" to be a well-formed html doc, and/or exceeds a certain length, then it will show that HTML, else it decide

You can have tomcat automatically make redirects to https ( and whatever port is configured in the "redirectPort" attribute of your http Connecter - 443 usually ), you can add some constraints in web.xml. Try this altered for whatever directories you want to be https only :
