HTTPS Redirect URL Problem

[pkrogel]

I have HTTP to HTTPS redirect working correctly on our JBOSS 5.0.1 Server by adding the following to web.xml:

<security-constraint>

<web-resource-collection>

      <web-resource-name>Secure Content</web-resource-name>

      <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>

      </web-resource-collection>

      <user-data-constraint>

      <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>

      </user-data-constraint>

</security-constraint>

The problem is that the URL in the response does not work correctly on all of our user's networks.

If I go to http://example.com,

I get redirected to https://example.com:7000

That url does not work for all of our users. I need to remove the port specification from the URL. (just https://example.com)

How do I configure the redirect to omit the port from the URL?

When you call this url https://example.com  

You are doing this:

https://127.0.0.1:443 or https://127.0.0.1:80

The ports 443 and 80 are of default for protocol http.

You have two way:

1) You configure the port in Jboss 80 or 443

2) You install Apache and configure mod_jk mod_proxy mod_cluster as load balancing
