I'm working on Apache Tomcat/6.0.33 running in Windows 2003 and have been
asked to setup SSL. Looking at the server.xml file, I see that the AJP/1.3
connector is configured and not APR. Like a good newbie that I am with
Tomcat, I followed the Tomcat instructions for configuring SSL. However, the
docs seemed to step me through the steps for an APR-type connector, not AJP
since I had specified a keystore and passphrase. When I reviewed the AJP
connector documentation, I didn't find any attributes to specify for the
keystore and passphrase.
So my question is, can I use a keystore for the AJP type of connector? And
if so, are there any good tutorials out there that can walk me through it.
If not, can I simply edit out the AJP connector in my server.xml file and
edit in the APR connector? Or will that somehow break the site/application
that's running on Tomcat?
Note that AJP is a protocol and APR is an implementation type. Tomcat
supports HTTP, HTTPS and AJP as protocols, and BIO, NIO and APR as the
implementation. Tomcat 7 supports all combinations, Tomcat 6 all
combination except for AJP/NIO.
AJP is an unencrypted protocol. So configuring SSL, keystore etc. for an
AJP connector does not make sense. This is true for any AJP
implementation, be it BIO, NIO or APR.
HTH!
