Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How do I restrict admin-console web-applet to https?
  • How can I add a data constraint to enable automatic redirect from port 8080?
  • How can I use JBossWeb's RewriteValve to redirect all HTTP traffic to the HTTPS connector?
  • How can the users connecting on 8080 http to be redirected to 8443 https?
  • We are facing some issue regarding HTTP to HTTPS redirection.
  • I have two services on jboss eap 6.4.1. Now services are aviable via http and https.
http://host:8080/sevice1
http://host:8080/service2
https://host:8443/service1
https://host:8443/service2

Is it possible to configure jboss to serve ONE from services only via https and SECOND via both - secured and unsecured protocols ? Like the following :

http://host:8080/service2
https://host:8443/service1
https://host:8443/service2
