I am trying to get to the bottom of a problem I am having with SSL and the rich-client in 4.1. server is installed and running ok (CentOS). Can access rich-client through port 8080 without problems. Have a real certificate loaded into the keystore that is bring used by servoy server (eg admin pages report SSL initialised OK).
We also need to use SSL for the actual web pages used to access the system - eg the Front page from which the user downloads and runs the rich client java applet. According to the HOWTO 10487/10488 this is possible. I have setup server.xml according to those HOWTO:
The result I get is that when accessing https://server.cesoft.com.au:8443/ I do see the splash screen and can click to download/run the rich client. However as soon as the download starts, it fails with ‘error cannot download from server’ in the browser. Needless to say, on port 8080 everything works just fine.
Can anyone point out what might be wrong. Obviously Tomcat is working ok on 8443, otherwise I wouldnt see the splash page. Also I can access the servoy webclient and admin pages through 8443, so that confirms the basic SSL is working…the problems only occur when trying to use the rich java client.
NB I DIDNT put the codebase override directive in servoy.properties becuase I am using version 4.1
Thanks
