Use HTTPS to access webservice on standalone OC4J

Question

I have followed the instructions in the Oracle Containers for J2EE Security Guide for setting up SSL (Chapter 15) on standalone OC4J. I have also looked at Tugs blog about using HTTPS with web services. I believe I have everything setup right but have a problem.
BTW, I am using a standalone OC4J instance that is also an ESB server. Prior to doing the SSL setup I already had 2 test web services running that could be accessed via http just fine.
Here is my default-web-site.xml file contents:
<web-site xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/web-site-10_0.xsd" port="8888" display-name="OC4J 10g (10.1.3) Default Web Site" schema-major-version="10" schema-minor-version="0" >

<web-app application="esb-dt" name="esb_console" load-on-startup="true" root="/esb" />

<access-log path="../log/default-web-access.log" split="day" />
</web-site>
Here is my secure-web-site.xml file contents:
<web-site xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/web-site-10_0.xsd" secure="true" port="4443" display-name="OC4J 10g (10.1.3) Secure Web Site" schema-major-version="10" schema-minor-version="0" >
<default-web-app application="default" name="defaultWebApp" />
<web-app application="Test-elexnet_service-WS" name="WebServices" load-on-startup="true" root="/Test-elexnet_service-context-root" />
<web-app application="Test-elexnet_service2-WS" name="WebServices" load-on-startup="true" root="/Test-elexnet_service2-context-root" />
<access-log path="../log/secure-web-access.log" split="day" />
<ssl-config keystore="C:\OracleESB\j2ee\home\oc4jkeystore.jks" keystore-password="xxx" />
</web-site>
I also have the following in my server.xml file:
<application name="javasso" path="../../home/applications/javasso.ear" parent="default" start="false" />
<application name="ascontrol" path="../../home/applications/ascontrol.ear" parent="system" start="true" />

<application name="esb-test" path="../applications/oraesb-test.ear" parent="default" start="true" />
<application name="Test-elexnet_service-WS" path="../applications\Test-elexnet_service-WS.ear" parent="default" start="true" />
<application name="webapp" path="../applications\webapp.ear" parent="default" start="true" />
<application name="Test-elexnet_service2-WS" path="../applications\Test-elexnet_service2-WS.ear" parent="default" start="true" />
<global-web-app-config path="global-web-application.xml" />
<transaction-manager-config path="transaction-manager.xml" />
<web-site default="true" path="./default-web-site.xml" />
<web-site path="./secure-web-site.xml" />
<cluster id="31671846181898" />
All I really want is to access the 2 web services via HTTPS. I can access the default applciation via https just fine but when I try to use https to access the web services I get a 404 Not found error (after first getting a security alert popup). I can still access the services via http though. In the log of the server I have the following errors that occured on startup of OC4J. They pertain to the secure web site and there is an error for each web service. I don't understand what they mean/what the problem is:
<MSG_TEXT>Internal error raised tyring to instantiate web-application: WebServices defined in web site OC4J 10g (10.1.3) Secure Web Site. Error compiling :C:\OracleESB\j2ee\home\applications\Test-elexnet_service2-WS\WebServices: Error instantiating compiler: IO error writing cache: C:\OracleESB\j2ee\home\application-deployments\Test-elexnet_service2-WS\WebServices\deployment-cache.jar</MSG_TEXT>

Anyone know what is going on? TIA!

Answer 1

I found that when I REMOVED the following from the default-web-site.xml
<web-app application="Test-elexnet_service-WS" name="WebServices" load-on-startup="true" root="/Test-elexnet_service-context-root" />
<web-app application="Test-elexnet_service2-WS" name="WebServices" load-on-startup="true" root="/Test-elexnet_service2-context-root" />
and restarted OC4J, then everything is ok and I don't get any errors. However I can only access the web services via HTTPS and not HTTP.
Anybody got any ideas?
