You're running Tomcat, not TomCat. > I am trying to get everything redirected to the ssl port 8443. Read section 12 of the servlet spec (JSR-000154). Only protected resources with a <transport-guarantee> of CONFIDENTIAL or better will be automatically redirected to the SSL port. Note that the world's most popular and standards-ignoring browser (IE) frequently mishandles SSL on any port other than 443. > Should I just disable port 8080 in the system.xml (That's server.xml; precision counts.) You can do that, but browsers would show an error when attempting a normal connection. You could write a simple filter or valve that just redirects HTTP requests to HTTPS on the desired port. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
