I also tried again as described as this post http://www.avajava.com/tutorials/lessons/how-do-i-set-up-ssl-on-tomcat.html?page=1

And I monitored the port as told in the post. The tcp/ip is encrypted as expected. However, in browser, I still can see the payload without encryption. I am confused.

hi, DougMH,
Yes, I tested it with a web browser like this: https://localhost/demo/index.html.

I totally followed the instructions given by this post’s author.
I checked the communication with firebug and found the issue.

Hope getting your further help.

OrNot, So your web site comes up using 8443? Are you trying to communicate with your site via a web service or something? If so, you’re going to have to get into the certificate business. I’ve not done that yet, but there are instructions on the apache Tomcat web site. You’ll have to generate a Certificate.

I will try to get it working on mine and post something.

I can set up the https as described . but the request payload

still can be seen without any encryption. I missed something?

Something about the BLOG eliminated my 8443 lines from the server.xml file. I’ll try them again by removing the greater than and less than from the ends. Just remember to put tham back if you copy and paste.

Connector port=”8443″ protocol=”HTTP/1.1″ SSLEnabled=”true”
maxThreads=”150″ scheme=”https” secure=”true”
clientAuth=”false” sslProtocol=”TLS” keystorePass=”hhraweb”/
