HTTPS problem

[marvil]

I'm working on allowing HTTPS connections to our JBoss web server. I've created a key using the following command:

keytool -genkey -keystore c:\jboss-3.0.1\server\tm\keystore -keyalg RSA -storepass kalle123 -keypass kalle123

...and then I uncommented and edited the following code in deploy/jbossweb.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml:




443
5
255
30000
10000
5000
2000
/keystore
kalle123
kalle123




After starting JBoss, I try to open https://localhost in IE and it just waits forever with the hourglass cursor. I can telnet to localhost:443 and get a connection, so the port is obviously open. I get no messages in the JBoss log.

Can you help with this problem? I'm using JDK1.4 and JBoss 3.0.1 under Win 2000.

Is you jboss home dir property set to where you keystore is?

[marvil]

Yes, it can find the file. I know this because I tried replacing the keystore file with a dummy file, and I got an exception because the file format was incorrect.

The problem seems to have disappeared by itself. Perhaps a good night's sleep was what was IE needed. :-)
