I have written my webservice with https. but as per requirement I should provide authentication. so thought of going with SSL (HTTPs). Could anyone help me with steps like moving HTTP to HTTPs and SSL certification part with step by step.
i did by adding below in service and axis xml files:
<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
keystoreFile="/root/my_workspace/server.keystore" keystorePass="changeit"/>
<transportReceiver name="http" class= "org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServletListener">
<parameter name="port">8080</parameter>
</transportReceiver>
<transportReceiver name="https" class= "org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServletListener">
<parameter name="port">8443</parameter>
</transportReceiver>
but I don't want to access through HTTP. How can I restrict?
Also I created the WDSL request via eclipse, the value tag starts with "q0" and response has return tag as well. so how can avoid and go with custom req/response?
Making your Http connection over SSL i.e. Https , you need to enable SSL in your application server by providing a certificate (either self-signed or CA provided). It is not related to the application code.Please refer the documentation of your application server to enable SSL.For example, this link provides information about how to configure SSL in tomcat 7

I have a tomcat webapp where the client is using TLS1.2 but a technical scan found the server is still using TLS1.0. I want to enable TLS1.2. We are using Java 7 and the connector snippet for the server.xml is as below,
<Connector SSLEnabled="true" acceptCount="100" clientAuth="true" disableUploadTimeout="true" enableLookups="true" connectionTimeout="300000"
socket.soLingerOn="false" maxKeepAliveRequests="1000" maxThreads="50" port="2024" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" scheme="https" secure="true" sslProtocol="TLS"
keystoreFile="/cert/fic_rest.jks" keystorePass="********"
truststoreFile="/cert/fic_rest.jks" server="UnIdentified" compression="on" compressionMinSize="2048"
noCompressionUserAgents="gozilla, traviata" compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/javascript,text/css"
/>
<!-- Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port 2023 -->
<Connector port="2023" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="2022" />
<Connector acceptCount="100" clientAuth="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" enableLookups="true" connectionTimeout="300000"
socket.soLingerOn="false" maxKeepAliveRequests="1000" maxThreads="50" port="2020" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" server="UnIdentified"
/>
Would changing "sslProtocol="TLS" to "sslProtocol="TLSv1.2" is all that is enough?
We are using tomcat 7.0.82
The sslProtocol configuration protocol does next to nothing: it only specifies which SSLContext to use, but from the perspective of a server this does not restrict anything. Any version of SSLContext sets the default SSL server protocols to the entire list of supported protocols (cf. source code).
Therefore you need to set sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2" (cf. Tomcat documentation) to restrict the accepted protocol versions to only TLS 1.2. You can then test your configuration using curl.
However, if usage of TLS versions less then 1.2 is a security constraint for the whole system (cf. this question) by adding the following line to $JRE_HOME/lib/security/java.security:
jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1
Warning: this will influence all TLS connections in Java, even those with old databases.
We are running a spring boot application on tomcat server 8.5.5. We have security certificates and SSL configured for it to support https. Currently is uses TLSv1.2. Our payment gateway provider has plans to discontinue TLSv1.2 support and continue support for only TLSv1.3.
Hence we want to add TLSv1.3 support to our application server. Our connector block with the required ciphers for TLSv1.3 is below.
<Connector port="443" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEnabled="true" keystoreFile="/home/ubuntu/ourkey.p9"
keystorePass="ourpass" clientAuth="false" keystoreType="keystore"
sslProtocol="TLSv1.2" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2+TLSv1.3" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" server="Web"
useServerCipherSuitesOrder="true"
ciphers="TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,
TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256,
TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,
TLS_AES_128_CCM_8_SHA256,
TLS_AES_128_CCM_SHA256,
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384,... other ciphers/>
We are using the JSSE implemetation and so far no concrete documntation could be found for tomcat. The official doc has the connector block as below:
<!-- Define an SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443 -->
<Connector
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
port="8443" maxThreads="200"
scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEnabled="true"
keystoreFile="${user.home}/.keystore" keystorePass="changeit"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"/>
Here the sslProtocol attribute has TLS which by defaults to TLS version 1.2. We tried it changing to TLSv1.3 but did not work. Also, as mentioned here tried adding the sslEnabledProtocol attribute. That did not work as well. We addded the necessary ciphers needed for a TLSv1.3 handshake to be successful.
How can we configure the server.xml connector block for it to support TLSv1.3 is what we are trying to figure out. Any inputs, hints would be helpful.
Use both sslProtocol="TLS" and sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2+TLSv1.3".
That works for me (on tomcat 9 with java 13.0.1)
I am trying to configure tomcat with the SSL on server (Because i need to make a request through https).
I followed these steps-:
1). generating a keystore
$Tomcat\bin>keytool -genkey -alias mkyong -keyalg RSA -keystore
c:\mkyongkeystore
Enter keystore password:
Re-enter new password:
What is your first and last name?
[Unknown]: yong mook kim
What is the name of your organizational unit?
//omitted to save space
[no]: yes
Enter key password for <mkyong>
(RETURN if same as keystore password):
Re-enter new password:
$Tomcat\bin>
2). configuring tomcat with keystore by adding a connector In server.xml
<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
keystoreFile="/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/key/mykeystore"
keystorePass="password" />
then I tried to open the https://[host]:8443/
But its still shows This page can’t be displayed
But when I tried the same method for localhost then it worked.
Why its not working on server
Here are some quotes from Tomcat documentation on setting HTTPS:
Tomcat can use two different implementations of SSL:
the JSSE implementation provided as part of the Java runtime (since 1.4)
the APR implementation, which uses the OpenSSL engine by default....
As configuration attributes for SSL support significantly differ between APR vs. JSSE implementations, it is recommended to avoid auto-selection of implementation. It is done by specifying a classname in the protocol attribute of the Connector.
To define a Java (JSSE) connector, regardless of whether the APR library is loaded or not, use one of the following:
<!-- Define a HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443, JSSE NIO implementation -->
<Connector protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
port="8443" .../>
My understanding on that is that you should try to use a classname for the protocol attribute:
<Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
keystoreFile="/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/key/mykeystore"
keystorePass="password" />
I think better you can redirect the tomcat port to IIS,in IIS you can easily enable HTTPS.

I've deployed a number of SSL configurations, including both Tomcat (cacerts + keytool) and IIS (Windows Certificate Store + netsh http sslcert) so I'm familiar with these procedures.
Has anyone come up with a way to point Tomcat's SSL connector to a Windows Store (i.e. configuration, extension, plugin, etc.)? Just looking to centralize management of SSL deployments to one store, vs. having multiple stores.
According to the answer on "SSL enabling in Tomcat Windows server" you can specify keystore type as "Windows-My" in configuration of connector in server.xml, it worked for me on Tomcat 8.0.22 as well
<Connector port="8443"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150"
scheme="https"
secure="true"
keyAlias="<alias of the cert>"
keystoreFile=""
keystoreType="Windows-My"
clientAuth="false"
sslProtocol="TLS"
keepAliveTimeout="200000" />
<Connector port="8443"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150"
scheme="https"
secure="true"
keyAlias="<alias of the cert>"
keystoreFile=""
keystorePass=""
keystoreType="Windows-My"
clientAuth="false"
sslProtocol="TLS"
keepAliveTimeout="200000" />
keystoreFile and keystorePass has to be set to empty string. see my comment at bz.apache.org "BUG 56021"
If not set they will default to values that causes trouble.
keyAlias should be either the friendly name (if it has one) or the common name of the certificate.
It seems not possible. From tomcat 8 documentation https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/ssl-howto.html
tomcat currently operates only on JKS, PKCS11 or PKCS12 format keystores.
Windows Store would require an specific connector similar to the 'WINDOWS-MY' of JSSE.
There is no reference in documentation to any plugin or connector to Windows Certificate Store.
While Dmitry's solution works on Tomcat 8.0, from Tomcat 8.5 onward there is a small caveat: you need to explicitly set JSSE as SSLImplementation. Hence the configuration becomes (considering also the new structure introduced in Tomcat 8.5):
<Connector port="8443"
sslImplementationName="org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSEImplementation"
scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEnabled="true">
<SSLHostConfig>
<Certificate certificateKeystoreType="Windows-MY"
certificateKeystoreFile=""
certificateKeyAlias="tomcat" />
</SSLHostConfig>
</Connector>
Alternatively, one can also set useOpenSSL="false" on the AprLifecycleListener.
I am trying to get self signed certificate for my website. I created a certificate using "Keytool" and then made following changes in conf/server.xml
<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
redirectPort="8443" />
<Connector SSLEnabled="true" clientAuth="false"
keystoreFile="c:\tomcat\keystore\.keystore" keystorePass="changeit"
maxThreads="150" port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="https"
secure="true" sslProtocol="TLS" />
When i run the tomcat server externally and type the URL https://"localhost":8443 (No quotes around localhost) it works but when i run the tomcat server in Eclipse i get 404 error.
Can anyone please help me with this. Thanks in advance.
I referred to the below sites for help.
http://technology-for-human.blogspot.com/2011/08/ssl-in-tomcat-under-eclipse-part-1-self.html
Eclipse WTP: How do I enable SSL on Tomcat?
According to https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html
the sslProtocol property should be one of the followings: SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, all.
Try putting "TLSv1+TLSv1.1+TLSv1.2".
Be sure there's no exceptions regarding the keystore's path or password.
And last but not least, remove the redirectPort property from others Connectors.
