I've set up a Jenkins environment inside of Tomcat as a webapp, and I have it running rather well.
However, I noticed I cannot get tomcat to redirect jenkins to https -- or anything for that matter - such that I've setup the web.xml and server.xml properly - I can get to the https setup just fine, but the redirectPort="#" portion doesn't seem to do anything with Tomcat.
Does anyone know if Jenkins has something that overrides the settings of Tomcat like this or other than setting up the two xml files (security constraints and connectors with redirects) is there something I'm missing when running jenkins through Tomcat?
