Re: [jetty-user] Redirect to an http url when ssl handshake fails

In order to send a redirect there has to be a HTTP conversation, as the
redirect location is part of the HTTP response headers.
But if the SSL handshake fails, there's no HTTP conversation.
A little hard to send an HTTP response when there is no HTTP (yet)

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I am using jetty for a demonstration web application with smart card<br>
identification. I have no problem using jetty with SSL with<br>
authenticated client.<br>
<br>
When the smart card is disconnected and we try to load a page, the<br>
handshake fails (as expected) and our browser shows an error page<br>
specifying this failure. I would like to make jetty redirect to a<br>
simple http url when the handshake fails, only to display a better<br>
looking page.<br>
<br>
Is there a way to configure the jetty ssl connector to do that ?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help,<br>
<br>
Guillaume<br>
