Does this version of Tomcat support TLS 1.2?

If so, how and where do I set it up?

Hi Knut,

This apparently depends on the Java JDK version that is used. I've found the following with a quick web search:

>Does Tomcat support TLS v1.2?

The Tomcat version we ship with Uniface 9.6.08 is using the JDK version 7.

And more info about TLS can also be found in the Tomcat doc:

> Apache Tomcat 7 - SSL/TLS Configuration HOW-TO

It might be worth noting that the Tomcat version 7.0.29 is quite old. The current version of Tomcat 7 seems to be 7.0.105.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Appreciate the quick answer.  How 'safe' would it be to update the UF supplied version of Tomcat to the latest version?  I'm thinking libraries supplied by UF...  Has anyone tested the latest version or am I left to be the guniea pig here myself?  🙂

Hi Knut,

I know of customers who have done this before - maybe not this specific combination. The following article should give you a general idea how to update Tomcat:

> Apache/Tomcat 8 Uniface Migration Guide

It covers newer Tomcat versions, but the principle to update the version should be the same (I guess).

I hope this helps.
