http to https redirect (tomcat/jboss)

Question

We want to redirect all traffic that comes to the http url of our application to https, in order to do that we set the following values in the web.xml in the deploy/jboss-web.de

Answer 1

Well, the good news is that in production it will work fine. The security constraint is doing its job, but it is designed to work only between http (80) and https(443).

Pay attention that 8744 - 8381 = 363 = 443 - 80

I am using JBoss-4.2.3.GA and have observed the same behavior, not sure if it is still doing this on Wildfly.
