I don't know anything about Java Spring or Tomcat, but you can do this with mod_rewrite in Apache. &nbsp;Something like this:<br />
<br />
RewriteCond ${HTTPS} !^on$<br />
RewriteRule ^/?login.jsp$ https://mydomain.com/login.jsp&nbsp;[R=301]

Hi I'm pretty new to web programming and am trying to implement SSL.<br />
<br />
I've done the tomcat configuration and installed the keys using keytool. I am able to access the application both using http and https<br />
<br />
My web application is on Java Springs. I wanted to know if there is any place where I can specify which URL should be accessed through https. Initially I just want the login page to be accessed via https.<br />
<br />
I know one way would be to directly put the full URL including https in all pages that have link to https - for instance call the login.jsp as follows<br />
&lt;a href=&quot;<a href="https://www.xxxxxx.com/login.jsp" rel="ugc">https://www.xxxxxx.com/login.jsp</a>&quot;&gt;Login&lt;/a&gt;<br />
<br />
But I dont think this is the right approach. Because in the entire App i'm using relative URL's - so once I forward the users to login.jsp via https - after that all the subsequent clicks will be accessed via https.<br />
<br />
I hope my question is clear.<br />
Appreciate your responses<br />
Thanks

The Apache HTTP Server is a secure, efficient and extensible server that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards. Typically Apache is run on a Unix-like operating system, but it is available for a wide variety of operating systems, including Linux, Novell NetWare, Mac OS-X and Windows. Released under the Apache License, Apache is open-source software.

Apache Web Server

Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) is a specification defining a collection of Java-based server and client technologies and how they interoperate. Java EE specifies server and client architectures and uses profiles to define technology sets targeted at specific classes of applications. All Java EE profiles share a set of common features, such as naming and resource injection, packaging rules and security requirements.

HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The main motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the visited website and to protect the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data. HTTPS is widely used for protecting page authenticity on all types of websites, securing accounts and keeping user communications, identity and web browsing private.
