Running fixx over SSL or HTTPS

To enable fixx to run on SSL, do the following.

Enable HTTPS on fixx

  • Edit conf/server.xml located in the fixx directory and add the following code at the bottom before the </Service>tag.

<Connector port="443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" useBodyEncodingForURI="true" acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />

Setup your certificate and key with Tomcat

Since fixx uses the Tomcat 6.0 server as it's server base, you can follow the instructions available in the Tomcat Documentation for details on installing your SSL certificate on Tomcat.
