I have configured server.xml
file as below for accessing my site using https.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">

<!-- A "Connector" represents an endpoint by which requests are received
and responses are returned. Each Connector passes requests on to the
associated "Container" (normally an Engine) for processing.
By default, a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector is established on port 8080.
You can also enable an SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443 by
following the instructions below and uncommenting the second Connector
entry. SSL support requires the following steps (see the SSL Config
HOWTO in the Tomcat 5 documentation bundle for more detailed
instructions):
* If your JDK version 1.3 or prior, download and install JSSE 1.0.2 or
later, and put the JAR files into "$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext".
* Execute:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA (Windows)
$JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA (Unix)
with a password value of "changeit" for both the certificate and
the keystore itself.
By default, DNS lookups are enabled when a web application calls
request.getRemoteHost(). This can have an adverse impact on
performance, so you can disable it by setting the
"enableLookups" attribute to "false". When DNS lookups are disabled,
request.getRemoteHost() will return the String version of the
IP address of the remote client.

after configuration when i access tomcat manager using http://localhost:8443
i am able to access tomcat manager but when i try using https://localhost:8443
unable to access tomcat manager.
also unable to access my site using this url : https://localhost:8443/mysite
why i am unable to access my site using https? is there anything wrong in server.xml file? is there anything that i need to configure in server?or is there any server settings?
I am also accessing web sites running on IIS from my server machine..
I have the same problem as you have described.
i have resolved it by changing connector in server.xml
file as below.
<Connector SSLEnabled="true" acceptCount="100" clientAuth="false"
disableUploadTimeout="true" enableLookups="false" maxThreads="25"
port="8443" keystoreFile="D:/Tomcat5/conf/.keystore" keystorePass="password"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol" scheme="https"
secure="true" sslProtocol="TLS" />
Please don't forget to replace your keystore file path and password in connector.
Finally restart tomcat and check.
