I enabled SSL / HTTPS in tomcat server version 7 of windows machine. After enabling, server fails to start. I am getting error message as "Server Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost was unable to start within 45 seconds. If the server requires more time, try increasing the timeout in the server editor.". I am using tomcat which is plugged in eclipse. I changed the network connection to Manual and modified the port. Still i do not see any changes.

Here is my "server.xml" file

But its working fine if i uncomment the connector tag mentioned below, but first time we have to access using http and port as 8080, which redirects to https and port as 8443 , after that it keeps working

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>

Can you suggest what is missing with this.

Have you created the certificates ? I have enabled ssl using the following connector and create certificates using open ssl.

Here's the code:

 <Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
         maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
         keystoreFile="F:\Himanshu_Profile_New\My Desktop\ssl\MW_Cloud.keystore" keyAlias="MW_Cloud-p12"
         keystorePass="meghaware"
         clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
