Forcing SSL on a JSP I'm trying to replicate the behavior that occurs when you set CONFIDENTIAL to confidential in web.xml. If I do this, when I hit the index.jsp page of my webapp, I am automatically redirected to https://localhost/myappname. However, I have a different SSL port setup for testing, and I'd like to only switch on one page, the index.jsp page. So I've added the following scriplet to my index.jsp and it works great in Mozilla, but fails in IE. IE prompts me with the certificate information, and then gives a "Cannot Find Server" error. Any ideas?

<%
// TODO: Make this into a tag library
Boolean secureLogin = (Boolean)application.getAttribute(Constants.SECURE_LOGIN);
System.out.println("secureLogin: " + secureLogin);
if (secureLogin.booleanValue()) {
    // make sure we're using https
    if (request.getScheme().equals("http")) {
        String redirectString = SslUtil.getRedirectString(request,
                                                          application,
                                                          true);
        
        System.out.println("redirecting to: " + response.encodeRedirectURL(redirectString)); 
        %>
        <logic:redirect href="<%=response.encodeRedirectURL(redirectString)%>"/>                                                    
        <%
    }
}
%>

Everything looks the same in Tomcat's log when using either browser. Posted in Java at Dec 10 2002, 10:10:25 AM MST Add a Comment
