Httpd + mod_ssl + Jboss

igain Mar 25, 2008 2:09 PM

Hi All,

We are using jboss 4.2 and fronting it with Apache2 + mod_jk as a load balancer.

Everything is working fine so far. Now we need install SSL cert in our application.

I tried to install it on embedded tomcat inside jboss but when i try to access my application "page cannot be displayed" error coming in browser.

And if i access the application directly from jboss without using apache2 SSL is working fine.

I tried to debug mod_jk and found that response code is coming as 302 and it tried to redirect to https based URL but in browser i see page cannot be displayed error.

Is there any other configuration that i need to do in apache.

Would appreciate any help.

Web server Env is : Apache2.0.52, mod_ssl-2.0.52, mod_jk1.2
App server env is : Jboss 4.2

Hi
Try to

Apache + ssl (enables everything about ssl)
Jboss +ssl (enables everything about ssl)

In the htttp.conf you can configure VirtualHost
with the module jk, apache communicates with Jboss

example

SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite
SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache2/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache2/conf/ssl.crt/server.key
# Should mod_jk send SSL information to Tomcat (default is On)
JkExtractSSL On
# What is the indicator for SSL (default is HTTPS)
JkHTTPSIndicator HTTPS
# What is the indicator for SSL session (default is SSL_SESSION_ID)
JkSESSIONIndicator SSL_SESSION_ID
# What is the indicator for client SSL cipher suit (default is SSL_CIPHER)
JkCIPHERIndicator SSL_CIPHER
# What is the indicator for the client SSL certificated (default is SSL_CLIENT_CERT)
JkCERTSIndicator SSL_CLIENT_CERT

JkMount.....
