Title: WO5.4 app deployed on Tiger: SSL Problem
I have an app developed on a Leopard box in WO5.4 and then deployed on a Tiger server. In deployment, the WO5.4 frameworks are bundled into the application package, so (I hope) the application uses nothing on the Tiger system. (The application doesn't use Wonder.)
The deployed application works perfectly on Tiger - about which I am impressed - all of the functionality is just fine. Things only go wrong when I turn on SSL.
The point at which problems occur is the redirect from the application's url (http://gamp.murdoch.edu.au/cgi-bin/WebObjects/CASE.woa) to the SSL based login page. The browser reports:
Safari can’t open the page “https://gamp.murdoch.edu.au:433/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Cafe.woa/wa/Login/startLogin” because it could not connect to the server “gamp.murdoch.edu.au”.
This corresponds to what I see in debug traces. In the default Direct Action, I create a WORedirect component, set its URL to the ‘startLogin’ action (see above) and then return the component. After this point, nothing appears in the logs. I know the login page component is never instantiated, so presumably the problem is in the redirect to an SSL address. Also, dispatchRequest() on the application object is never called after returning the WORedirect page.
The identical code in other applications works fine when deployed as WO5.3 on the Tiger server.
Does anyone know if WO5.4 handles SSL in some different way. (Do I need to call 'secureMode(true)' on the WOContext.)
Are there any suggestion for how I might debug this problem? (Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Leopard server with SSL.) I did turned on all the debug flags, but still there is silence after attempting to return the WORedirect page.
Thanks
Michael Scott
