Description Martin Weiler 2012-01-18 10:13:35 UTC
project_key: JBEPP

The description on how to define the https connector is incomplete:
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Portal_Platform/5.2/html/Installation_Guide/sect-Installation_Guide-HTTPS_Configuration-Use_In_Jboss.html

Working instructions can be found here:
https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-69009

Basically, in order to have gadgets working under https, both keystoreFile/keystorePass AND truststoreFile/truststorePass attributes need to be defined on the https connector.
