I have a tomcat 8 server with http and https ports. All the jsp files run fine on http, but on https the jsp tags are getting output to the page and I'm seeing something like this.
<%@ page language="java" pageEncoding="UTF-8" contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8"%> <%@ page import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*"%>
...
I'm not sure what the root cause of the problem is, although it seems like it's a tomcat configuration problem. I've been looking through my tomcat config files in case there's something out of place, but it seems mostly fine from what I can tell. What might be the issue?
The jsp tags are well formed. The https port is hooked up to an elastic load balancer, which I'm pretty sure is setup correctly at this point.
For what it's worth, here's what I've got for the connectors in my server.xml
<Connector port="8080" proxyPort="80" proxyName="www.pckit.org"
protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000" />
<Connector port="443" proxyPort="443"
protocol="HTTP/1.1"
maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"/>
<Connector port="8009" enableLookups="false" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="443" />
Here's the jsp servlet in web.xml
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>fork</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>xpoweredBy</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
I also found this output in the catalina log files, which might be related.
