https://localhost:8443

We setup transport confidential in our web.xml e.g.

...

            <url-pattern>/xxx</url-pattern>

            <url-pattern>/stats/*</url-pattern>

            <url-pattern>/_ah/mail/*</url-pattern>

         </web-resource-collection>

        <user-data-constraint>

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

        </user-data-constraint>

But when we hit http://localhost/xxx, it is redirected to https://localhost:8443/xxx? Why? What is the workaround to make it work locally if this is another "feature" of Wildfly/Undertow?

In GAEJ, it is correctly redirected to just http://localhost/xxx as there is no SSL support for local dev_server.

Because your web.xml states that the /xxx path needs to be served as CONFIDENTIAL and hence it is redirected to the https protocol. It's working as expected.

See, we need to use ssl in the cloud/ openshift but locally you dont have that. So what is the solution without toggling it to work in both?

You can have ssl locally as well.

What is the syntax?
