Good morning Jim!
>From what I can see, support for the Http11AprProtocol protocol was removed
in Tomcat 9.1.x/10.1.x (TDS Docker image uses 10.1) (
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/api/org/apache/coyote/http11/Http11AprProtocol.html).
I believe you'll need to migrate that bit of xml config to use the
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol protocol (
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.1-doc/config/http.html). Perhaps something
like:
<Connector protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" port="8443"
maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true" maxParameterCount="1000">
<SSLHostConfig>
<Certificate
certificateKeyFile="/usr/local/share/ca-certificates/privkey.pem"
certificateFile="/usr/local/share/ca-certificates/cert.pem"
certificateChainFile="/usr/local/share/ca-certificates/fullchain.pem"
type="RSA" />
</SSLHostConfig>
</Connector>
Note that the attributes on the Connector element are slightly different.
Cheers,
Sean
