Redirecting HTTP requests

HTTP requests are not automatically redirected to HTTPS.

Problem

In the IBM® Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® Next application, HTTP requests are not automatically redirected to HTTPS. When this problem occurs, you might see a message that starts with A connection to the server cannot be established.

Solution

Redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS by adding an entry to the web.xml file of the DOORS Next application. For more information about how to redirect requests, see the HTTP requests are not automatically redirected to HTTPS entry in the workaround article.
