    SSL configuration for JBoss 3.2.4

    dev2gosoft

      I am migrating from JBoss 3.2.3 to JBoss 3.2.4 (both have integrated tomcat ) . The 3.2.3 version had the SSL configured with a keystore and the necessary configuration for the same in jboss-server.xml. It works fine.

      However 3.2.4 version integrates Tomcat 5.x and the jboss-server.xml is entirely different.

      I have tried the following in the 3.2.4 version:
      1. Created a keystore "server.keystore"
      2. Add the following to jboss-server.xml
      "



      C:/jboss_3.2.4/server/all/conf/server.keystore
      password
      "

      3. to test if ssl is enabled.. i try http://localhost:8443/ and i see a page not found instead of a prompt to review the certificate...

      Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
      Thanks in advance.

          Oops I forgot to put a code block and the xml file portion was treated as html and hence not display... please disregard the previous post. Thanks

            Never mind i figured it out. actually it was pretty straight forward as soon as you find out that the new configuration file is server.xml for configuring jbossweb-tomcat50 ....

            uncomment the section for ssl section and update with the keystore url and keystore password and it runs like a charm..


            the file:
            <jboss home dir>/server/all/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/server.xml

              Thank you!
              I posted a description of an identical problem with JBoss 3.2.5 under Installation & Configuration. So now I can see if this works.
