Hello All,
Just a clarification on this again as I see some mails asking for info.
I am aware, that I am trying to access the tomcat with the url, which is
erroneous
i.,e http://<servername>:8443
Is there any way I can handle this scenario and send a page not found or any
other standard errors to the user instead of making him see the junk characters
or having him to download a junk file(as in firefox)
This is a bug wherein I want the user the see the standard error page and not
this junk stuff, which a user can not understand.
Regards,
Uday Shankar AB

Subject: A junk file is downloaded when port number and connection scheme is
mismatched in the URL
Hello All,
I am facing a peculiar issue in my server running Apache Tomcat/5.5.9.
I have a Tomcat server setup with 8080 and 8443 ports listening for http and
https connections.
When I access the tomcat welcome page hosted in my server as below,
http://<servername>:8080 OR https://<servername>:8443
I get the expected web page. But when I change the scheme and port number,
as below,
http://<servername>:8443
This is what happens,
In IE:
Displays junk characters (in precise, 4 boxes)
In Mozilla/Safari(Mac):
Downloads a junk file which says that it is of type "application/octet-stream"
To shed some more light on the issue,
When I changed the secure server port to 443 and i tried accessing URL,
http://<servername>:443 it took me to
the default tomcat welcome page and for any other port other than 443, it gave
me the same behavior.
Please let me know if there is any solution for this above scenario and your
comments on what is causing this behavior.
Thanks in Advance,
Uday
