It enables Catalina to function as a stand-alone web server, in addition to its ability to execute servlets and JSP pages. A particular instance of this component listens for connections on a specific TCP port number on the server. One or more such Connectors can be configured as part of a single Service, each forwarding to the associated Engine to perform request processing and create the response. If you wish to configure the Connector that is used for connections to web servers using the AJP protocol (such as the mod_jk 1.2.x connector for Apache 1.3), please refer to the AJP Connector documentation. Each incoming, non-asynchronous request requires a thread for the duration of that request. If more simultaneous requests are received than can be handled by the currently available request processing threads, additional threads will be created up to the configured maximum (the value of the maxThreads attribute). If still more simultaneous requests are received, Tomcat will accept new connections until the current number of connections reaches maxConnections. Connections are queued inside the server socket created by the Connector until a thread becomes avaialble to process the connection. Once maxConnections has been reached the operating system will queue further connections. The size of the operating system provided connection queue may be controlled by the acceptCount attribute. If the operating system queue fills, further connection requests may be refused or may time out. Attributes Common Attributes All implementations of Connector support the following attributes: Attribute Description allowTrace A boolean value which can be used to enable or disable the TRACE HTTP method. If not specified, this attribute is set to false. asyncTimeout The default timeout for asynchronous requests in milliseconds. If not specified, this attribute is set to the Servlet specification default of 30000 (30 seconds). continueResponseTiming When to respond with a 100 intermediate response code to a request containing an Expect: 100-continue header. The following values may used: immediately - an intermediate 100 status response will be returned as soon as practical onRead - an intermediate 100 status response will be returned only when the Servlet reads the request body, allowing the servlet to inspect the headers and possibly respond before the user agent sends a possibly large request body. defaultSSLHostConfigName The name of the default SSLHostConfig that will be used for secure connections (if this connector is configured for secure connections) if the client connection does not provide SNI or if the SNI is provided but does not match any configured SSLHostConfig. If not specified the default value of _default_ will be used. Provided values are always converted to lower case. discardFacades A boolean value which can be used to enable or disable the recycling of the facade objects that isolate the container internal request processing objects. If set to true the facades will be set for garbage collection after every request, otherwise they will be reused. This setting has no effect when the security manager is enabled. If not specified, this attribute is set to the value of the org.apache.catalina.connector.RECYCLE_FACADES system property, or false if not set. enableLookups Set to true if you want calls to request.getRemoteHost() to perform DNS lookups in order to return the actual host name of the remote client. Set to false to skip the DNS lookup and return the IP address in String form instead (thereby improving performance). By default, DNS lookups are disabled. encodedSolidusHandling When set to reject request paths containing a %2f sequence will be rejected with a 400 response. When set to decode request paths containing a %2f sequence will have that sequence decoded to / at the same time other %nn sequences are decoded. When set to passthrough request paths containing a %2f sequence will be processed with the %2f sequence unchanged. If not specified the default value is reject. This default may be modified if the deprecated system property org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH is set. maxHeaderCount The maximum number of headers in a request that are allowed by the container. A request that contains more headers than the specified limit will be rejected. A value of less than 0 means no limit. If not specified, a default of 100 is used. maxParameterCount The maximum number of parameter and value pairs (GET plus POST) which will be automatically parsed by the container. Parameter and value pairs beyond this limit will be ignored. A value of less than 0 means no limit. If not specified, a default of 10000 is used. Note that FailedRequestFilter filter can be used to reject requests that hit the limit. maxPostSize The maximum size in bytes of the POST which will be handled by the container FORM URL parameter parsing. The limit can be disabled by setting this attribute to a value less than zero. If not specified, this attribute is set to 2097152 (2 megabytes). Note that the FailedRequestFilter can be used to reject requests that exceed this limit. maxSavePostSize The maximum size in bytes of the request body which will be saved/buffered by the container during FORM or CLIENT-CERT authentication or during HTTP/1.1 upgrade. For both types of authentication, the request body will be saved/buffered before the user is authenticated. For CLIENT-CERT authentication, the request body is buffered for the duration of the SSL handshake and the buffer emptied when the request is processed. For FORM authentication the POST is saved whilst the user is re-directed to the login form and is retained until the user successfully authenticates or the session associated with the authentication request expires. For HTTP/1.1 upgrade, the request body is buffered for the duration of the upgrade process. The limit can be disabled by setting this attribute to -1. Setting the attribute to zero will disable the saving of the requets body data during authentication and HTTP/1.1 upgrade. If not specified, this attribute is set to 4096 (4 kilobytes). parseBodyMethods A comma-separated list of HTTP methods for which request bodies using application/x-www-form-urlencoded will be parsed for request parameters identically to POST. This is useful in RESTful applications that want to support POST-style semantics for PUT requests. Note that any setting other than POST causes Tomcat to behave in a way that goes against the intent of the servlet specification. The HTTP method TRACE is specifically forbidden here in accordance with the HTTP specification. The default is POST port The TCP port number on which this Connector will create a server socket and await incoming connections. Your operating system will allow only one server application to listen to a particular port number on a particular IP address. If the special value of 0 (zero) is used, then Tomcat will select a free port at random to use for this connector. This is typically only useful in embedded and testing applications. protocol Sets the protocol to handle incoming traffic. The default value is HTTP/1.1 which uses an auto-switching mechanism to select either a Java NIO based connector or an APR/native based connector. If the PATH (Windows) or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (on most unix systems) environment variables contain the Tomcat native library, and the AprLifecycleListener that is used to initialize APR has its useAprConnector attribute set to true, the APR/native connector will be used. If the native library cannot be found or the attribute is not configured, the Java NIO based connector will be used. Note that the APR/native connector has different settings for HTTPS than the Java connectors. To use an explicit protocol rather than rely on the auto-switching mechanism described above, the following values may be used: org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol - non blocking Java NIO connector org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Nio2Protocol - non blocking Java NIO2 connector org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol - the APR/native connector. Custom implementations may also be used. Take a look at our Connector Comparison chart. The configuration for both Java connectors is identical, for http and https. For more information on the APR connector and APR specific SSL settings please visit the APR documentation proxyName If this Connector is being used in a proxy configuration, configure this attribute to specify the server name to be returned for calls to request.getServerName(). See Proxy Support for more information. proxyPort If this Connector is being used in a proxy configuration, configure this attribute to specify the server port to be returned for calls to request.getServerPort(). See Proxy Support for more information. redirectPort If this Connector is supporting non-SSL requests, and a request is received for which a matching requires SSL transport, Catalina will automatically redirect the request to the port number specified here. scheme Set this attribute to the name of the protocol you wish to have returned by calls to request.getScheme(). For example, you would set this attribute to "https" for an SSL Connector. The default value is "http". secure Set this attribute to true if you wish to have calls to request.isSecure() to return true for requests received by this Connector. You would want this on an SSL Connector or a non SSL connector that is receiving data from a SSL accelerator, like a crypto card, an SSL appliance or even a webserver. The default value is false. URIEncoding This specifies the character encoding used to decode the URI bytes, after %xx decoding the URL. The default value is UTF-8. useBodyEncodingForURI This specifies if the encoding specified in contentType should be used for URI query parameters, instead of using the URIEncoding. This setting is present for compatibility with Tomcat 4.1.x, where the encoding specified in the contentType, or explicitly set using Request.setCharacterEncoding method was also used for the parameters from the URL. The default value is false. Notes: 1) This setting is applied only to the query string of a request. Unlike URIEncoding it does not affect the path portion of a request URI. 2) If request character encoding is not known (is not provided by a browser and is not set by SetCharacterEncodingFilter or a similar filter using Request.setCharacterEncoding method), the default encoding is always "ISO-8859-1". The URIEncoding setting has no effect on this default. useIPVHosts Set this attribute to true to cause Tomcat to use the IP address that the request was received on to determine the Host to send the request to. The default value is false. xpoweredBy Set this attribute to true to cause Tomcat to advertise support for the Servlet specification using the header recommended in the specification. The default value is false. Standard Implementation The standard HTTP connectors (NIO, NIO2 and APR/native) all support the following attributes in addition to the common Connector attributes listed above. Attribute Description acceptCount The maximum length of the operating system provided queue for incoming connection requests when maxConnections has been reached. The operating system may ignore this setting and use a different size for the queue. When this queue is full, the operating system may actively refuse additional connections or those connections may time out. The default value is 100. acceptorThreadPriority The priority of the acceptor threads. The threads used to accept new connections. The default value is 5 (the value of the java.lang.Thread.NORM_PRIORITY constant). See the JavaDoc for the java.lang.Thread class for more details on what this priority means. address For servers with more than one IP address, this attribute specifies which address will be used for listening on the specified port. By default, the connector will listen all local addresses. Unless the JVM is configured otherwise using system properties, the Java based connectors (NIO, NIO2) will listen on both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses when configured with either 0.0.0.0 or ::. The APR/native connector will only listen on IPv4 addresses if configured with 0.0.0.0 and will listen on IPv6 addresses (and optionally IPv4 addresses depending on the setting of ipv6v6only) if configured with ::. allowHostHeaderMismatch By default Tomcat will reject requests that specify a host in the request line but specify a different host in the host header. This check can be disabled by setting this attribute to true. If not specified, the default is false. allowedTrailerHeaders By default Tomcat will ignore all trailer headers when processing chunked input. For a header to be processed, it must be added to this comma-separated list of header names. bindOnInit Controls when the socket used by the connector is bound. By default it is bound when the connector is initiated and unbound when the connector is destroyed. If set to false, the socket will be bound when the connector is started and unbound when it is stopped. clientCertProvider When client certificate information is presented in a form other than instances of java.security.cert.X509Certificate it needs to be converted before it can be used and this property controls which JSSE provider is used to perform the conversion. For example it is used with the AJP connectors, the HTTP APR connector and with the org.apache.catalina.valves.SSLValve. If not specified, the default provider will be used. compressibleMimeType The value is a comma separated list of MIME types for which HTTP compression may be used. The default value is text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/javascript,application/javascript,application/json,application/xml . If you specify a type explicitly, the default is over-ridden. compression The Connector may use HTTP/1.1 GZIP compression in an attempt to save server bandwidth. The acceptable values for the parameter is "off" (disable compression), "on" (allow compression, which causes text data to be compressed), "force" (forces compression in all cases), or a numerical integer value (which is equivalent to "on", but specifies the minimum amount of data before the output is compressed). If the content-length is not known and compression is set to "on" or more aggressive, the output will also be compressed. If not specified, this attribute is set to "off". Note: There is a tradeoff between using compression (saving your bandwidth) and using the sendfile feature (saving your CPU cycles). If the connector supports the sendfile feature, e.g. the NIO connector, using sendfile will take precedence over compression. The symptoms will be that static files greater that 48 Kb will be sent uncompressed. You can turn off sendfile by setting useSendfile attribute of the connector, as documented below, or change the sendfile usage threshold in the configuration of the DefaultServlet in the default conf/web.xml or in the web.xml of your web application. compressionMinSize If compression is set to "on" then this attribute may be used to specify the minimum amount of data before the output is compressed. If not specified, this attribute is defaults to "2048". Units are in bytes. connectionLinger The number of seconds during which the sockets used by this Connector will linger when they are closed. The default value is -1 which disables socket linger. connectionTimeout The number of milliseconds this Connector will wait, after accepting a connection, for the request URI line to be presented. Use a value of -1 to indicate no (i.e. infinite) timeout. The default value is 60000 (i.e. 60 seconds) but note that the standard server.xml that ships with Tomcat sets this to 20000 (i.e. 20 seconds). Unless disableUploadTimeout is set to false, this timeout will also be used when reading the request body (if any). connectionUploadTimeout Specifies the timeout, in milliseconds, to use while a data upload is in progress. This only takes effect if disableUploadTimeout is set to false. disableUploadTimeout This flag allows the servlet container to use a different, usually longer connection timeout during data upload. If not specified, this attribute is set to true which disables this longer timeout. executor A reference to the name in an Executor element. If this attribute is set, and the named executor exists, the connector will use the executor, and all the other thread attributes will be ignored. Note that if a shared executor is not specified for a connector then the connector will use a private, internal executor to provide the thread pool. executorTerminationTimeoutMillis The time that the private internal executor will wait for request processing threads to terminate before continuing with the process of stopping the connector. If not set, the default is 5000 (5 seconds). keepAliveTimeout The number of milliseconds this Connector will wait for another HTTP request before closing the connection. The default value is to use the value that has been set for the connectionTimeout attribute. Use a value of -1 to indicate no (i.e. infinite) timeout. maxConnections The maximum number of connections that the server will accept and process at any given time. When this number has been reached, the server will accept, but not process, one further connection. This additional connection be blocked until the number of connections being processed falls below maxConnections at which point the server will start accepting and processing new connections again. Note that once the limit has been reached, the operating system may still accept connections based on the acceptCount setting. The default value is 8192. For NIO/NIO2 only, setting the value to -1, will disable the maxConnections feature and connections will not be counted. maxCookieCount The maximum number of cookies that are permitted for a request. A value of less than zero means no limit. If not specified, a default value of 200 will be used. maxExtensionSize Limits the total length of chunk extensions in chunked HTTP requests. If the value is -1, no limit will be imposed. If not specified, the default value of 8192 will be used. maxHttpHeaderSize The maximum size of the request and response HTTP header, specified in bytes. If not specified, this attribute is set to 8192 (8 KB). maxKeepAliveRequests The maximum number of HTTP requests which can be pipelined until the connection is closed by the server. Setting this attribute to 1 will disable HTTP/1.0 keep-alive, as well as HTTP/1.1 keep-alive and pipelining. Setting this to -1 will allow an unlimited amount of pipelined or keep-alive HTTP requests. If not specified, this attribute is set to 100. maxSwallowSize The maximum number of request body bytes (excluding transfer encoding overhead) that will be swallowed by Tomcat for an aborted upload. An aborted upload is when Tomcat knows that the request body is going to be ignored but the client still sends it. If Tomcat does not swallow the body the client is unlikely to see the response. If not specified the default of 2097152 (2 megabytes) will be used. A value of less than zero indicates that no limit should be enforced. maxThreads The maximum number of request processing threads to be created by this Connector, which therefore determines the maximum number of simultaneous requests that can be handled. If not specified, this attribute is set to 200. If an executor is associated with this connector, this attribute is ignored as the connector will execute tasks using the executor rather than an internal thread pool. Note that if an executor is configured any value set for this attribute will be recorded correctly but it will be reported (e.g. via JMX) as -1 to make clear that it is not used. maxTrailerSize Limits the total length of trailing headers in the last chunk of a chunked HTTP request. If the value is -1, no limit will be imposed. If not specified, the default value of 8192 will be used. minSpareThreads The minimum number of threads always kept running. This includes both active and idle threads. If not specified, the default of 10 is used. If an executor is associated with this connector, this attribute is ignored as the connector will execute tasks using the executor rather than an internal thread pool. Note that if an executor is configured any value set for this attribute will be recorded correctly but it will be reported (e.g. via JMX) as -1 to make clear that it is not used. noCompressionStrongETag This flag configures whether resources with a strong ETag will be considered for compression. If true, resources with a strong ETag will not be compressed. The default value is true. This attribute is deprecated. It will be removed in Tomcat 10 onwards where it will be hard-coded to true. noCompressionUserAgents The value is a regular expression (using java.util.regex) matching the user-agent header of HTTP clients for which compression should not be used, because these clients, although they do advertise support for the feature, have a broken implementation. The default value is an empty String (regexp matching disabled). processorCache The protocol handler caches Processor objects to speed up performance. This setting dictates how many of these objects get cached. -1 means unlimited, default is 200. If not using Servlet 3.0 asynchronous processing, a good default is to use the same as the maxThreads setting. If using Servlet 3.0 asynchronous processing, a good default is to use the larger of maxThreads and the maximum number of expected concurrent requests (synchronous and asynchronous). rejectIllegalHeader If an HTTP request is received that contains an illegal header name or value (e.g. the header name is not a token) this setting determines if the request will be rejected with a 400 response (true) or if the illegal header be ignored (false). The default value is true which will cause the request to be rejected. rejectIllegalHeaderName This attribute is deprecated. It will be removed in Tomcat 10 onwards. It is now an alias for rejectIllegalHeader. relaxedPathChars The HTTP/1.1 specification requires that certain characters are %nn encoded when used in URI paths. Unfortunately, many user agents including all the major browsers are not compliant with this specification and use these characters in unencoded form. To prevent Tomcat rejecting such requests, this attribute may be used to specify the additional characters to allow. If not specified, no additional characters will be allowed. The value may be any combination of the following characters: " < > [ \ ] ^ ` { | } . Any other characters present in the value will be ignored. relaxedQueryChars The HTTP/1.1 specification requires that certain characters are %nn encoded when used in URI query strings. Unfortunately, many user agents including all the major browsers are not compliant with this specification and use these characters in unencoded form. To prevent Tomcat rejecting such requests, this attribute may be used to specify the additional characters to allow. If not specified, no additional characters will be allowed. The value may be any combination of the following characters: " < > [ \ ] ^ ` { | } . Any other characters present in the value will be ignored. restrictedUserAgents The value is a regular expression (using java.util.regex) matching the user-agent header of HTTP clients for which HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/1.0 keep alive should not be used, even if the clients advertise support for these features. The default value is an empty String (regexp matching disabled). server Overrides the Server header for the http response. If set, the value for this attribute overrides any Server header set by a web application. If not set, any value specified by the application is used. If the application does not specify a value then no Server header is set. serverRemoveAppProvidedValues If true, any Server header set by a web application will be removed. Note that if server is set, this attribute is effectively ignored. If not set, the default value of false will be used. SSLEnabled Use this attribute to enable SSL traffic on a connector. To turn on SSL handshake/encryption/decryption on a connector set this value to true. The default value is false. When turning this value true you will want to set the scheme and the secure attributes as well to pass the correct request.getScheme() and request.isSecure() values to the servlets See SSL Support for more information. tcpNoDelay If set to true, the TCP_NO_DELAY option will be set on the server socket, which improves performance under most circumstances. This is set to true by default. threadPriority The priority of the request processing threads within the JVM. The default value is 5 (the value of the java.lang.Thread.NORM_PRIORITY constant). See the JavaDoc for the java.lang.Thread class for more details on what this priority means. If an executor is associated with this connector, this attribute is ignored as the connector will execute tasks using the executor rather than an internal thread pool. Note that if an executor is configured any value set for this attribute will be recorded correctly but it will be reported (e.g. via JMX) as -1 to make clear that it is not used. throwOnFailure If the Connector experiences an Exception during a Lifecycle transition should the Exception be rethrown or logged? If not specified, the default of false will be used. Note that the default can be changed by the org.apache.catalina.startup.EXIT_ON_INIT_FAILURE system property. useAsyncIO (bool) Use this attribute to enable or disable usage of the asynchronous IO API. The default value is true except when using the APR connector due to low performance. useKeepAliveResponseHeader (bool) Use this attribute to enable or disable the addition of the Keep-Alive HTTP response header as described in this Internet-Draft. The default value is true. Java TCP socket attributes The NIO and NIO2 implementation support the following Java TCP socket attributes in addition to the common Connector and HTTP attributes listed above. Attribute Description socket.rxBufSize (int)The socket receive buffer (SO_RCVBUF) size in bytes. JVM default used if not set. socket.txBufSize (int)The socket send buffer (SO_SNDBUF) size in bytes. JVM default used if not set. Care should be taken if explicitly setting this value. Very poor performance has been observed on some JVMs with values less than ~8k. socket.tcpNoDelay (bool)This is equivalent to standard attribute tcpNoDelay. socket.soKeepAlive (bool)Boolean value for the socket's keep alive setting (SO_KEEPALIVE). JVM default used if not set. socket.ooBInline (bool)Boolean value for the socket OOBINLINE setting. JVM default used if not set. socket.soReuseAddress (bool)Boolean value for the sockets reuse address option (SO_REUSEADDR). JVM default used if not set. socket.soLingerOn (bool)Boolean value for the sockets so linger option (SO_LINGER). A value for the standard attribute connectionLinger that is >=0 is equivalent to setting this to true. A value for the standard attribute connectionLinger that is <0 is equivalent to setting this to false. Both this attribute and soLingerTime must be set else the JVM defaults will be used for both. socket.soLingerTime (int)Value in seconds for the sockets so linger option (SO_LINGER). This is equivalent to standard attribute connectionLinger. Both this attribute and soLingerOn must be set else the JVM defaults will be used for both. socket.soTimeout This is equivalent to standard attribute connectionTimeout. socket.performanceConnectionTime (int)The first value for the performance settings. See Socket Performance Options. All three performance attributes must be set else the JVM defaults will be used for all three. socket.performanceLatency (int)The second value for the performance settings. See Socket Performance Options. All three performance attributes must be set else the JVM defaults will be used for all three. socket.performanceBandwidth (int)The third value for the performance settings. See Socket Performance Options. All three performance attributes must be set else the JVM defaults will be used for all three. socket.unlockTimeout (int) The timeout for a socket unlock. When a connector is stopped, it will try to release the acceptor thread by opening a connector to itself. The default value is 250 and the value is in milliseconds NIO specific configuration The following attributes are specific to the NIO connector. Attribute Description pollerThreadPriority (int)The priority of the poller threads. The default value is 5 (the value of the java.lang.Thread.NORM_PRIORITY constant). See the JavaDoc for the java.lang.Thread class for more details on what this priority means. selectorTimeout (int)The time in milliseconds to timeout on a select() for the poller. This value is important, since connection clean up is done on the same thread, so do not set this value to an extremely high one. The default value is 1000 milliseconds. useSendfile (bool)Use this attribute to enable or disable sendfile capability. The default value is true. Note that the use of sendfile will disable any compression that Tomcat may otherwise have performed on the response. socket.directBuffer (bool)Boolean value, whether to use direct ByteBuffers or java mapped ByteBuffers. If true then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocateDirect() is used to allocate the buffers, if false then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocate() is used. The default value is false. When you are using direct buffers, make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of memory for the direct memory space. On Sun's JDK that would be something like -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=256m. socket.directSslBuffer (bool)Boolean value, whether to use direct ByteBuffers or java mapped ByteBuffers for the SSL buffers. If true then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocateDirect() is used to allocate the buffers, if false then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocate() is used. The default value is false. When you are using direct buffers, make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of memory for the direct memory space. On Oracle's JDK that would be something like -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=256m. socket.appReadBufSize (int)Each connection that is opened up in Tomcat get associated with a read ByteBuffer. This attribute controls the size of this buffer. By default this read buffer is sized at 8192 bytes. For lower concurrency, you can increase this to buffer more data. For an extreme amount of keep alive connections, decrease this number or increase your heap size. socket.appWriteBufSize (int)Each connection that is opened up in Tomcat get associated with a write ByteBuffer. This attribute controls the size of this buffer. By default this write buffer is sized at 8192 bytes. For low concurrency you can increase this to buffer more response data. For an extreme amount of keep alive connections, decrease this number or increase your heap size. The default value here is pretty low, you should up it if you are not dealing with tens of thousands concurrent connections. socket.bufferPool (int)The NIO connector uses a class called NioChannel that holds elements linked to a socket. To reduce garbage collection, the NIO connector caches these channel objects. This value specifies the size of this cache. The default value is 500, and represents that the cache will hold 500 NioChannel objects. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. socket.bufferPoolSize (int)The NioChannel pool can also be size based, not used object based. The size is calculated as follows: NioChannel buffer size = read buffer size + write buffer size SecureNioChannel buffer size = application read buffer size + application write buffer size + network read buffer size + network write buffer size The value is in bytes, the default value is 1024*1024*100 (100MB). socket.processorCache (int)Tomcat will cache SocketProcessor objects to reduce garbage collection. The integer value specifies how many objects to keep in the cache at most. The default is 500. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. socket.keyCache (int)Tomcat will cache KeyAttachment objects to reduce garbage collection. The integer value specifies how many objects to keep in the cache at most. The default is 500. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. socket.eventCache (int)Tomcat will cache PollerEvent objects to reduce garbage collection. The integer value specifies how many objects to keep in the cache at most. The default is 500. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. unixDomainSocketPath Where supported, the path to a Unix Domain Socket that this Connector will create and await incoming connections. When this is specified, the otherwise mandatory port attribute may be omitted. unixDomainSocketPathPermissions Where supported, the posix permissions that will be applied to the to the Unix Domain Socket specified with unixDomainSocketPath above. The permissions are specified as a string of nine characters, in three sets of three: (r)ead, (w)rite and e(x)ecute for owner, group and others respectively. If a permission is not granted, a hyphen is used. If unspecified, the permissions default to rw-rw-rw-. useInheritedChannel (bool)Defines if this connector should inherit an inetd/systemd network socket. Only one connector can inherit a network socket. This can option can be used to automatically start Tomcat once a connection request is made to the systemd super daemon's port. The default value is false. See the JavaDoc for the java.nio.channels.spi.SelectorProvider class for more details. NIO2 specific configuration The following attributes are specific to the NIO2 connector. Attribute Description useSendfile (bool)Use this attribute to enable or disable sendfile capability. The default value is true. Note that the use of sendfile will disable any compression that Tomcat may otherwise have performed on the response. socket.directBuffer (bool)Boolean value, whether to use direct ByteBuffers or java mapped ByteBuffers. If true then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocateDirect() is used to allocate the buffers, if false then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocate() is used. The default value is false. When you are using direct buffers, make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of memory for the direct memory space. On Sun's JDK that would be something like -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=256m. socket.directSslBuffer (bool)Boolean value, whether to use direct ByteBuffers or java mapped ByteBuffers for the SSL buffers. If true then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocateDirect() is used to allocate the buffers, if false then java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocate() is used. The default value is false. When you are using direct buffers, make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of memory for the direct memory space. On Oracle's JDK that would be something like -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=256m. socket.appReadBufSize (int)Each connection that is opened up in Tomcat get associated with a read ByteBuffer. This attribute controls the size of this buffer. By default this read buffer is sized at 8192 bytes. For lower concurrency, you can increase this to buffer more data. For an extreme amount of keep alive connections, decrease this number or increase your heap size. socket.appWriteBufSize (int)Each connection that is opened up in Tomcat get associated with a write ByteBuffer. This attribute controls the size of this buffer. By default this write buffer is sized at 8192 bytes. For low concurrency you can increase this to buffer more response data. For an extreme amount of keep alive connections, decrease this number or increase your heap size. The default value here is pretty low, you should up it if you are not dealing with tens of thousands concurrent connections. socket.bufferPool (int)The NIO2 connector uses a class called Nio2Channel that holds elements linked to a socket. To reduce garbage collection, the NIO2 connector caches these channel objects. This value specifies the size of this cache. The default value is 500, and represents that the cache will hold 500 Nio2Channel objects. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. socket.processorCache (int)Tomcat will cache SocketProcessor objects to reduce garbage collection. The integer value specifies how many objects to keep in the cache at most. The default is 500. Other values are -1 for unlimited cache and 0 for no cache. APR/native specific configuration The following attributes are specific to the APR/native connector. Attribute Description deferAccept Sets the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT flag on the listening socket for this connector. The default value is true where TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT is supported by the operating system, otherwise it is false. ipv6v6only If listening on an IPv6 address on a dual stack system, should the connector only listen on the IPv6 address? If not specified the default is false and the connector will listen on the IPv6 address and the equivalent IPv4 address if present. pollerThreadCount Number of threads used to poll kept alive connections. On Windows the default is chosen so that the sockets managed by each thread is less than 1024. For Linux the default is 1. Changing the default on Windows is likely to have a negative performance impact. pollTime Duration of a poll call in microseconds. Lowering this value will slightly decrease latency of connections being kept alive in some cases, but will use more CPU as more poll calls are being made. The default value is 2000 (2ms). sendfileSize Amount of sockets that the poller responsible for sending static files asynchronously can hold at a given time. Extra connections will be closed right away without any data being sent (resulting in a zero length file on the client side). Note that in most cases, sendfile is a call that will return right away (being taken care of "synchronously" by the kernel), and the sendfile poller will not be used, so the amount of static files which can be sent concurrently is much larger than the specified amount. The default value is 1024. threadPriority (int)The priority of the acceptor and poller threads. The default value is 5 (the value of the java.lang.Thread.NORM_PRIORITY constant). See the JavaDoc for the java.lang.Thread class for more details on what this priority means. useSendfile (bool)Use this attribute to enable or disable sendfile capability. The default value is true. Note that the use of sendfile will disable any compression that Tomcat may otherwise have performed on the response. Nested Components First implemented in Tomcat 9 and back-ported to 8.5, Tomcat now supports Server Name Indication (SNI). This allows multiple SSL configurations to be associated with a single secure connector with the configuration used for any given connection determined by the host name requested by the client. To facilitate this, the SSLHostConfig element was added which can be used to define one of these configurations. Any number of SSLHostConfig may be nested in a Connector. At the same time, support was added for multiple certificates to be associated with a single SSLHostConfig. Each SSL certificate is therefore configured in a Certificate element with in an SSLHostConfig. For further information, see the SSL Support section below. Special Features HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0 Support This Connector supports all of the required features of the HTTP/1.1 protocol, as described in RFCs 7230-7235, including persistent connections, pipelining, expectations and chunked encoding. If the client supports only HTTP/1.0 or HTTP/0.9, the Connector will gracefully fall back to supporting this protocol as well. No special configuration is required to enable this support. The Connector also supports HTTP/1.0 keep-alive. RFC 7230 requires that HTTP servers always begin their responses with the highest HTTP version that they claim to support. Therefore, this Connector will always return HTTP/1.1 at the beginning of its responses. HTTP/2 Support HTTP/2 is support is provided for TLS (h2), non-TLS via HTTP upgrade (h2c) and direct HTTP/2 (h2c) connections. To enable HTTP/2 support for an HTTP connector the following UpgradeProtocol element must be nested within the Connector with a className attribute of org.apache.coyote.http2.Http2Protocol. Because Java 8's TLS implementation does not support ALPN (which is required for HTTP/2 over TLS), you must be using an OpenSSL based TLS implementation to enable HTTP/2 support. See the sslImplementationName attribute of the Connector. Additional configuration attributes are available. See the HTTP/2 Upgrade Protocol documentation for details. Proxy Support The proxyName and proxyPort attributes can be used when Tomcat is run behind a proxy server. These attributes modify the values returned to web applications that call the request.getServerName() and request.getServerPort() methods, which are often used to construct absolute URLs for redirects. Without configuring these attributes, the values returned would reflect the server name and port on which the connection from the proxy server was received, rather than the server name and port to whom the client directed the original request. For more information, see the Proxy Support How-To. Unix Domain Socket Support When the unixDomainSocketPath attribute is used, connectors that support Unix Domain Sockets will bind to the socket at the given path. For users of Java 16 and higher, support is provided within the NIO connectors. For users of Java earlier than 16, support is provided by the org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol connector when used with the Apache Tomcat Native library v1.2.26 and up, along with Apache Portable Runtime v1.6 and higher. The socket path is created with read and write permissions for all users. To protect this socket, place it in a directory with suitable permissions appropriately configured to restrict access as required. Alternatively, on platforms that support posix permissions, the permissions on the socket can be set directly with the unixDomainSocketPathPermissions option. Tomcat will automatically remove the socket on server shutdown. If the socket already exists startup will fail. Care must be taken by the administrator to remove the socket after verifying that the socket isn't already being used by an existing Tomcat process. The Unix Domain Socket can be accessed using the --unix-socket option of the curl command line client, and the Unix Domain Socket support in Apache HTTP server's mod_proxy module. SSL Support You can enable SSL support for a particular instance of this Connector by setting the SSLEnabled attribute to true. You will also need to set the scheme and secure attributes to the values https and true respectively, to pass correct information to the servlets. The NIO and NIO2 connectors use either the JSSE Java SSL implementation or an OpenSSL implementation, whereas the APR/native connector uses OpenSSL only. Prior to Tomcat 8.5, different configuration attributes were used for JSSE and OpenSSL. From Tomcat 8.5 onwards, and as far as possible, common configuration attributes are used for both JSSE and OpenSSL. Also if using the JSSE OpenSSL implementation, configuration can be set using either the JSSE or APR attributes (note: but not both types within the same configuration). This is to aid simpler switching between connector implementations for SSL connectors. Each secure connector must define at least one SSLHostConfig. The names of the SSLHostConfig elements must be unique and one of them must match the defaultSSLHostConfigName attribute of the Connector. Each SSLHostConfig must in turn define at least one Certificate. The types of the Certificates must be unique. As of Tomcat 8.5, the majority of the SSL configuration attributes in the Connector are deprecated. If specified, they will be used to configure a SSLHostConfig and Certificate for the defaultSSLHostConfigName. Note that if an explicit SSLHostConfig element also exists for the defaultSSLHostConfigName then that will be treated as a configuration error. It is expected that Tomcat 10 will drop support for the SSL configuration attributes in the Connector. In addition to the standard TLS related request attributes defined in section 3.10 of the Servlet specification, Tomcat supports a number of additional TLS related attributes. The full list may be found in the SSLSupport Javadoc. For more information, see the SSL Configuration How-To. SSL Support - SSLHostConfig Attribute Description certificateRevocationListFile Name of the file that contains the concatenated certificate revocation lists for the certificate authorities. The format is PEM-encoded. If not defined, client certificates will not be checked against a certificate revocation list (unless an OpenSSL based connector is used and certificateRevocationListPath is defined). Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. JSSE based connectors may also specify a URL for this attribute. certificateRevocationListPath OpenSSL only. Name of the directory that contains the certificate revocation lists for the certificate authorities. The format is PEM-encoded. Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. certificateVerification Set to required if you want the SSL stack to require a valid certificate chain from the client before accepting a connection. Set to optional if you want the SSL stack to request a client Certificate, but not fail if one isn't presented. Set to optionalNoCA if you want client certificates to be optional and you don't want Tomcat to check them against the list of trusted CAs. If the TLS provider doesn't support this option (OpenSSL does, JSSE does not) it is treated as if optional was specified. A none value (which is the default) will not require a certificate chain unless the client requests a resource protected by a security constraint that uses CLIENT-CERT authentication. certificateVerificationDepth The maximum number of intermediate certificates that will be allowed when validating client certificates. If not specified, the default value of 10 will be used. caCertificateFile OpenSSL only. Name of the file that contains the concatenated certificates for the trusted certificate authorities. The format is PEM-encoded. caCertificatePath OpenSSL only. Name of the directory that contains the certificates for the trusted certificate authorities. The format is PEM-encoded. ciphers The ciphers to enable using the OpenSSL syntax. (See the OpenSSL documentation for the list of ciphers supported and the syntax). Alternatively, a comma separated list of ciphers using the standard OpenSSL cipher names or the standard JSSE cipher names may be used. When converting from OpenSSL syntax to JSSE ciphers for JSSE based connectors, the behaviour of the OpenSSL syntax parsing is kept aligned with the behaviour of the OpenSSL 1.1.0 development branch. Only the ciphers that are supported by the SSL implementation will be used. If not specified, a default (using the OpenSSL notation) of HIGH:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DES:!RC4:!MD5:!kRSA will be used. Note that, by default, the order in which ciphers are defined is treated as an order of preference. See honorCipherOrder. disableCompression OpenSSL only. Configures if compression is disabled. The default is true. If the OpenSSL version used does not support disabling compression then the default for that OpenSSL version will be used. disableSessionTickets OpenSSL only. Disables use of TLS session tickets (RFC 5077) if set to true. Default is false. Note that when TLS session tickets are in use, the full peer certificate chain will only be available on the first connection. Subsequent connections (that use a ticket to estrablish the TLS session) will only have the peer certificate, not the full chain. honorCipherOrder Set to true to enforce the server's cipher order (from the ciphers setting) instead of allowing the client to choose the cipher. The default is false. hostName The name of the SSL Host. This should either be the fully qualified domain name (e.g. tomcat.apache.org) or a wild card domain name (e.g. *.apache.org). If not specified, the default value of _default_ will be used. Provided values are always converted to lower case. insecureRenegotiation OpenSSL only. Configures if insecure renegotiation is allowed. The default is false. If the OpenSSL version used does not support configuring if insecure renegotiation is allowed then the default for that OpenSSL version will be used. keyManagerAlgorithm JSSE only. The KeyManager algorithm to be used. This defaults to KeyManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm() which returns SunX509 for Sun JVMs. IBM JVMs return IbmX509. For other vendors, consult the JVM documentation for the default value. protocols The names of the protocols to support when communicating with clients. This should be a list of any combination of the following: SSLv2Hello SSLv3 TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3 all Each token in the list can be prefixed with a plus sign ("+") or a minus sign ("-"). A plus sign adds the protocol, a minus sign removes it form the current list. The list is built starting from an empty list. The token all is an alias for SSLv2Hello,TLSv1,TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3. Note that TLSv1.3 is only supported for JSSE when using a JVM that implements TLSv1.3. Note that SSLv2Hello will be ignored for OpenSSL based secure connectors. If more than one protocol is specified for an OpenSSL based secure connector it will always support SSLv2Hello. If a single protocol is specified it will not support SSLv2Hello. Note that SSLv2 and SSLv3 are inherently unsafe. If not specified, the default value of all will be used. revocationEnabled JSSE only. Should the JSSE provider enable certificate revocation checks? If certificateRevocationListFile is set then this attribute is ignored and revocation checks are always enabled. This attribute is intended to enable revocation checks that have been configured for the current JSSE provider via other means. If not specified, a default of false is used. sessionCacheSize The number of SSL sessions to maintain in the session cache. Specify -1 to use the implementation default. Values of zero and above are passed to the implementation. Zero is used to specify an unlimited cache size and is not recommended. If not specified, a default of -1 is used. sessionTimeout The time, in seconds, after the creation of an SSL session that it will timeout. Specify -1 to use the implementation default. Values of zero and above are passed to the implementation. Zero is used to specify an unlimited timeout and is not recommended. If not specified, a default of 86400 (24 hours) is used. sslProtocol JSSE only. The SSL protocol(s) to use (a single value may enable multiple protocols - see the JVM documentation for details). If not specified, the default is TLS. The permitted values may be obtained from the JVM documentation for the allowed values for algorithm when creating an SSLContext instance e.g. Oracle Java 7. Note: There is overlap between this attribute and protocols. trustManagerClassName JSSE only. The name of a custom trust manager class to use to validate client certificates. The class must have a zero argument constructor and must also implement javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager. If this attribute is set, the trust store attributes may be ignored. truststoreAlgorithm JSSE only. The algorithm to use for truststore. If not specified, the default value returned by javax.net.ssl.TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm() is used. truststoreFile JSSE only. The trust store file to use to validate client certificates. The default is the value of the javax.net.ssl.trustStore system property. If neither this attribute nor the default system property is set, no trust store will be configured. Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. A URL may also be used for this attribute. truststorePassword JSSE only. The password to access the trust store. The default is the value of the javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword system property. If that property is null, no trust store password will be configured. If an invalid trust store password is specified, a warning will be logged and an attempt will be made to access the trust store without a password which will skip validation of the trust store contents. truststoreProvider JSSE only. The name of the truststore provider to be used for the server certificate. The default is the value of the javax.net.ssl.trustStoreProvider system property. If that property is null, the value of keystoreProvider is used as the default. If neither this attribute, the default system property nor keystoreProvider is set, the list of registered providers is traversed in preference order and the first provider that supports the truststoreType is used. truststoreType JSSE only. The type of key store used for the trust store. The default is the value of the javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType system property. If that property is null, a single certificate has been configured for this TLS virtual host and that certificate has a keystoreType that is not PKCS12 then the default will be the keystoreType of the single certificate. If none of these identify a default, the default will be JKS. See the notes on key store types below. SSL Support - Certificate Attribute Description certificateFile Name of the file that contains the server certificate. The format is PEM-encoded. Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. In addition to the certificate, the file can also contain as optional elements DH parameters and/or an EC curve name for ephemeral keys, as generated by openssl dhparam and openssl ecparam, respectively. The output of the respective OpenSSL command can simply be concatenated to the certificate file. certificateChainFile Name of the file that contains the certificate chain associated with the server certificate used. The format is PEM-encoded. Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. The certificate chain used for Tomcat should not include the server certificate as its first element. Note that when using more than one certificate for different types, they all must use the same certificate chain. certificateKeyAlias JSSE only. The alias used for the server key and certificate in the keystore. If not specified, the first key read from the keystore will be used. The order in which keys are read from the keystore is implementation dependent. It may not be the case that keys are read from the keystore in the same order as they were added. If more than one key is present in the keystore it is strongly recommended that a keyAlias is configured to ensure that the correct key is used. certificateKeyFile Name of the file that contains the server private key. The format is PEM-encoded. The default value is the value of certificateFile and in this case both certificate and private key have to be in this file (NOT RECOMMENDED). Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. certificateKeyPassword The password used to access the private key associated with the server certificate from the specified file. If not specified, the default behaviour for JSSE is to use the certificateKeystorePassword. For OpenSSL the default behaviour is not to use a password. certificateKeystoreFile JSSE only. The pathname of the keystore file where you have stored the server certificate and key to be loaded. By default, the pathname is the file .keystore in the operating system home directory of the user that is running Tomcat. If your keystoreType doesn't need a file use "" (empty string) or NONE for this parameter. Relative paths will be resolved against $CATALINA_BASE. A URI may also be used for this attribute. When using a domain keystore (keystoreType of DKS), this parameter should be the URI to the domain keystore. certificateKeystorePassword JSSE only. The password to use to access the keystore containing the server's private key and certificate. If not specified, a default of changeit will be used. certificateKeystoreProvider JSSE only. The name of the keystore provider to be used for the server certificate. If not specified, the value of the system property javax.net.ssl.keyStoreProvider is used. If neither this attribute nor the system property are set, the list of registered providers is traversed in preference order and the first provider that supports the keystoreType is used. certificateKeystoreType JSSE only. The type of keystore file to be used for the server certificate. If not specified, the value of the system property javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType is used. If neither this attribute nor the system property are set, a default value of "JKS". is used. See the notes on key store types below. type The type of certificate. This is used to identify the ciphers that are compatible with the certificate. It must be one of UNDEFINED, RSA, DSA or EC. If only one Certificate is nested within a SSLHostConfig then this attribute is not required and will default to UNDEFINED. If multiple Certificates are nested within a SSLHostConfig then this attribute is required and each Certificate must have a unique type. SSL Support - Connector - NIO and NIO2 When APR/native is enabled, the connectors will default to using OpenSSL through JSSE, which may be more optimized than the JSSE Java implementation depending on the processor being used, and can be complemented with many commercial accelerator components. The following NIO and NIO2 SSL configuration attributes are not specific to a virtual host and, therefore, must be configured on the connector. Attribute Description sniParseLimit In order to implement SNI support, Tomcat has to parse the first TLS message received on a new TLS connection (the client hello) to extract the requested server name. The message needs to be buffered so it can then be passed to the JSSE implementation for normal TLS processing. In theory, this first message could be very large although in practice it is typically a few hundred bytes. This attribute sets the maximum message size that Tomcat will buffer. If a message exceeds this size, the connection will be configured as if no server name was indicated by the client. If not specified a default of 65536 (64k) will be used. sslImplementationName The class name of the SSL implementation to use. If not specified and the tomcat-native library is not installed, the default of org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSEImplementation will be used which wraps JVM's default JSSE provider. Note that the JVM can be configured to use a different JSSE provider as the default. Tomcat also bundles a special SSL implementation for JSSE that is backed by OpenSSL. To enable it, the native library should be enabled as if intending to use the APR connector, and Tomcat will automatically enable it and the default value of this attribute becomes org.apache.tomcat.util.net.openssl.OpenSSLImplementation. In that case, the attributes from either JSSE and OpenSSL configuration styles can be used, as long as the two types are not mixed (for example, it is not allowed to define use of a Java keystore and specify a separate pem private key using the OpenSSL attribute). Key store types In addition to the standard key store types (JKS and PKCS12), most Java runtimes support additional key store types such as Windows-ROOT, Windows-My, DKS as well as hardware security modules. Generally, to use these additional keystore types with a TLS Connector in Tomcat: Set the certificateKeystoreType and/or truststoreType Connector attribute (as appropriate) to the necessary type If a configuration file is required, set the certificateKeystoreFile and/or truststoreFile Connector attribute (as appropriate) to point to the file If no configuration file is required then you will almost certainly need to explicitly set the certificateKeystoreFile and/or truststoreFile Connector attribute (as appropriate) to the empty string ("") If a password is required, set the certificateKeystorePassword and/or truststorePassword Connector attribute (as appropriate) to the required password If no password is required then you will almost certainly need to explicitly set the certificateKeystorePassword and/or truststorePassword Connector attribute (as appropriate) to the empty string ("") Variations in key store implementations, combined with the key store manipulation Tomcat does in the background to allow interoperability between JSSE and OpenSSL configuration styles, means that some keystores may need slightly different configuration. Assistance is always available from the Apache Tomcat users mailing list. We aim to document any key stores that vary from the above advice here. Currently there are none we are aware of.

SSL Support - Connector - APR/Native (deprecated) When APR/native is enabled, the HTTPS connector will use a socket poller for keep-alive, increasing scalability of the server. It also uses OpenSSL, which may be more optimized than JSSE depending on the processor being used, and can be complemented with many commercial accelerator components. Unlike the HTTP connector, the HTTPS connector cannot use sendfile to optimize static file processing. The HTTPS APR/native connector has the same attributes than the HTTP APR/native connector, but adds OpenSSL specific ones. For the full details on using OpenSSL, please refer to OpenSSL documentations and the many books available for it (see the Official OpenSSL website).
