I have installed tomcat on ubuntu 18.4. post default installation and jave home configurations able to see webserver page as response for http://:8080.
Later generated keystore and updated the details in conf/server.xml to enable https. Even after this am not getting tomcat default page with https, though getting web page over http / 8080 port.
Any pointer to debug / enable https on tomcat.?
Is Apache tomcat version 8.5 compatible with Ubuntu 18.04 version.?
After reviewing the server.xml, connector node for https was made with smaller case. was not aware of it as case sensitive. after making appropriate changes able to access https also.

I have a web application that's running inside a docker container.
It's written in Play Framework. My host is an Ubuntu 16.04 server with apache. Docker application use the nginx server. The port 443 is directed to that container. SSL in my Apache server is turned off. Now when i try visiting my domain with https the browser give the warning which is annoying.
So i got some free certificates from sslforfree.com and used it with the docker application but still the warnings come up. Do i need to use those certificates in the apache server too?
Yes.
Your browser speaks with Apache server trying to establish an SSL communication at first, then Apache will try to forward the request to your docker container.
So, indeed, it's only mandatory to secure your Apache instead of the container to have the browser not complaining.
I am using tomcat on Linux centOs server. I want my java application is working fine on mydomain.com:8080. I want that my when some one hit the domain mydomain.com it automatically move to my java application.
Changin server.xml didm't worked for me. as i am also having apache2 on the server
I guess you have an apache server in port 80. I you do not want to remove apache and change directly the tomcat port ( see comments), you will need to redirect all traffic from port 80 to port 8080.
This can be done using tomcat connectors. They are plugins to connect web servers with Tomcat. When a HTTP request arrives, the plugin checks is it has to be redirected, connects to tomcat and returns the response to server
In the case of apache is needed to install mod_jk. In the link you can see the configuration
I have been tasked with Installing and Configuring Apache 2.4 on a windows server for the following purpose:
Configure SSL through apache
Apache Tomcat also installed on server to handle web request to a specific web application - MySQL db also on the same server.
How does one go about installing and configuring SSL through apache 2.4 on Windows Server 2012?
I have read so many documents and so many questions on forums etc and is now more confused than before.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/
https://www.sslshopper.com/article-installing-an-ssl-certificate-in-windows-server-2008-iis-7.0.html
So far i have download and installed apache as a service and created the Certificate service request from OPENSSL (downloaded and installed also).
All I need to do now is :
How does one import these certificates in apache ?
How do you test if the import was successful and if ssl is working ?
How to redirect Apache to Apache tomcat to serve the webpage

How does one import these certificates in[to] Apache [httpd]?
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/ssl/ssl_faq.html#realcert
How do you test if the import was successful and if SSL is working?
Connect to the server using a web browser with HTTPS. If it works, and the certificate looks the way you wanted it to look and you don't get an errors/warnings, then you are good.
How to redirect Apache [httpd] to Apache Tomcat to serve the web page
You need to use a module for reverse-proxying like mod_proxy. Read the documentation for mod_proxy_http to see how to set one up.
I have Apache tomcat 7 where I build my web application and I also have Apache Web Server where my web site exist wrote on Css and HTML. I want to inject my web app on web site. How can I make my Tomcat as web server and container and transfer web site from Apache WebServer to Tomcat. ???
I know tomcat also can work on 80 port. Just I use to read documentation how to integrate Apache WebServer with Tomcat using mod_jk ajp connectors and etc to do, seems like it doesn't work.
If you want to use Tomcat as your web server (to serve your .html and .css files and probably images), then you can just get rid of the Apache Web Server; you no longer need it, according to your question. Then, after putting all your html/css/etc. under webapps/[app-root]/, make sure that all references to port 8080 in Tomcat's conf/server.xml are changed to port 80, reboot Tomcat, and you'll be good to go.
I am currently trying to install apache tomcat for running on localhost as I am planning to run a new development project using Java.
Will this be a problem if I have already apache webserver installed locally on my machine already? In other words, will there be any port conflicts or anything other issues with the two servers running on the same machine?
No. Because Tomcat uses default port 8080 for the webserver while the "normal" webserver uses port 80 for html displaying. You can change that in the catalina properties of the tomcat server but on first install the defaults are not causing problems with a port 80 webserver.
