Trying to configure SSL with Lift and jetty's start.jar

[Lance Walton]

Hi all.

I have a lift app and I'm trying to configure jetty to use ssl.

I'm using scala 2.9.1, lift version 2.4-M4, jetty version
7.5.1.v20110908 and sbt 0.11.

I get sbt to produce a war file and I run it using: java -Xms512m -
Xmx1024m -Xss4m -jar start.jar --port 8080 lift-test_2.9.1-1.0.0.war

This starts up fine and I can connect using HTTP.

I then copy the jetty-ssl.xml file from the jetty 7.5.1.v20110908
distribution, which looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Jetty//Configure//EN" "http://
www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure.dtd">

<!-- =============================================================== --
>
<!-- Configure SSL for the Jetty Server --
>
<!-- this configuration file should be used in combination with --
>
<!-- other configuration files. e.g. --
>
<!-- java -jar start.jar etc/jetty-ssl.xml --
>
<!-- --
>
<!-- alternately, add to the start.ini for easier usage --
>
<!-- =============================================================== --
>
<Configure id="Server" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server">

<!-- if NIO is not available, use
org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSocketConnector -->

<New id="sslContextFactory"
class="org.eclipse.jetty.http.ssl.SslContextFactory">
<Set name="KeyStore"><Property name="jetty.home" default="." />/
etc/keystore</Set>
<Set name="KeyStorePassword">OBF:1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</
Set>
<Set name="KeyManagerPassword">OBF:1u2u1wml1z7s1z7a1wnl1u2g</Set>
<Set name="TrustStore"><Property name="jetty.home" default="." />/
etc/keystore</Set>
<Set name="TrustStorePassword">OBF:
1vny1zlo1x8e1vnw1vn61x8g1zlu1vn4</Set>
</New>

<Call name="addConnector">
<Arg>
<New
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.ssl.SslSelectChannelConnector">
<Arg><Ref id="sslContextFactory" /></Arg>
<Set name="Port">8443</Set>
<Set name="maxIdleTime">30000</Set>
<Set name="Acceptors">2</Set>
<Set name="AcceptQueueSize">100</Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</Call>
</Configure>

I then try to run it using: java -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -Xss4m -jar
start.jar etc/jetty-ssl.xml

And I get:

2011-10-17 13:41:29.426:INFO:omjr.Runner:Runner
2011-10-17 13:41:29.427:WARN:omjr.Runner:No tx manager found
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server cannot
be cast to org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.ContextHandler
at org.mortbay.jetty.runner.Runner.configure(Runner.java:364)
at org.mortbay.jetty.runner.Runner.main(Runner.java:638)

If I use that command line from within a clean jetty distribution
directory, I don't get this exception and I can look at the web page
using http://localhost:8443

Can anybody shed any light on this?

Regards,

Lance

Should this have gone to the http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb?lnk=srg
