Turns out this was related to an unintended use of APR via the tcnative-1.dll file.
Fixes include: - removal of the tcnative-1.dll file from the Tomcat bin dir - using an APR friendly SSL configuration as described under http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/apr.html All credit to Chuck Caldarale for setting me to rights on this one. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Iggulden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 09 July 2007 16:38 To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: request timeout over https I'm configuring a Tomcat 5.5 instance to use HTTPS. It's a fresh install, with a Sun Java 5 JVM. To config HTTPS I've followed the server.xml/how-to by generating a .keystore using the password "changeit" and uncommenting the SSL/HTTP1.1 connector on port 8443. I've also thrown fast common access log valve on by uncommenting that. At this point, the server starts with no errors logged and everything works fine over HTTP:8080. But any URL that I hit via HTTPS:8443 gets no response and nothing is logged in the access log, and nothing is reported in any log (level = warn). If I leave the connection timeout to 20 seconds, Firefox reports "The connection was interrupted" and IE7 says that I don't appear to be connected to the internet. If I set that to 0 then the browser just sits and waits patiently for that response over HTTPS that's definitely not coming ! I've ruled my firewall being funny with port 8443 out as a problem, because if I run Tomcat through Eclipse WST (which picks up a marginally different server.xml which loads the same app out of my development environment instead of /webapps) I can hit it fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
