Unsuccessful at getting https working with coldfusion 11 update 2

Question

I have made the changes I found in the Coldfusion 11 - Web Sockets via SSL discussion and I am getting "The connection was interrupted" in firefox when I try and go to the coldfusion administrator. I have successfully gotten https working in a Apache Tomcat server without Coldfusion. Is there something I am missing. Here is my connector page from the server.xml file:

	<Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" SSLEnabled="true"
	maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
	clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
	keystoreFile="C:\keystore.jks"
	keystorePass="MyPassword"
	keystoreType="JKS"/>

I have completely reinstalled Coldfusion 11 and put in the above directives in server.xml and it still does not work.

Looks like it was a keystore issue, although it never stated that, I redid the keystore and all is working fine now.

Are you accessing the CF admin using CF’s built-in web server (like port 8500), or an external web server like IIS or Apache?

If the latter, the key to getting SSL access for our admin is in how you setup the web server. You should not need to do anything in the server.xml, just to access the CF admin via SSL if using an external web server.

But if you ARE trying to use the built-in web server, there could be somethings amiss, but before digging further here’s a question; do you need to use the built-in web server? What if you setup the external web server to handle the SSL communications, and then pass the request into CF?
