[Anthill-pro] anthill3 installation

[Thomas Herrmann]

Hi all,

I just figured out that the problem seems to be the secure connection,
i. e. the SSL key!

Our integration machine is also running the subversion repository, which
is configured to use https. AFAIK, the SSL key is bound on the ip
address and Anthill generates it's own key, so there is a mismatch.

I therefore installed AnthillPro 3.1 without HTTPS, and guess what: Now
i can access the web interface :-).

So i guess that we have to use plain HTTP for Anthill to work. At least,
it seems to work in our environment.

Hope that all makes some kind of sense....

BTW: Is it possible to install Anthill to run within the standard tomcat
installation instead of it's own tomcat instance?

Kind regards
Thomas
