Enable TLS 1.3 for AEM 6.5.24 on Windows Server 2022
In AEM 6.5.24 running on Windows Server 2022 with JBoss, TLS 1.3 isn’t enabled by default even though the platform supports it. This article explains how to update the JBoss configuration to enable TLS 1.3 for secure HTTPS connections. To fix this, add TLSv1.3 to the enabled protocols in the JBoss configuration and restart the server.
Description description
Environment
- Product: Adobe Experience Manager Forms (JEE)
- Version: 6.5.24, 6.5.23
- Operating System: Windows Server 2022
- Application Server: JBoss
- Java Development Kit:
jdk11.0.19 - Constraints: All components must meet Adobe’s supported platform matrix requirements
Issue/Symptoms
- TLS 1.3 isn’t enabled by default in the JBoss configuration for AEM Forms on Windows Server 2022.
- The operating system and bundled components support TLS 1.3, but HTTPS connections use older protocols.
Resolution resolution
Follow these steps to enable TLS 1.3:
- Stop the JBoss server.
- Navigate to the configuration directory for your AEM Forms installation.
- Open the
lc_turnkeyconfiguration file. - Ensure SSL is already configured and applied to your JBoss server.
- Locate the
https-listenertag in the configuration file. - Add or update the
enabled-protocolsattribute to includeTLSv1.3. - Delete all
svcfolders andtmpdirectories within thestandalonedirectory of your JBoss installation. - Restart the JBoss server.
- After startup, verify TLS 1.3 is enabled by checking your browser’s security settings when accessing AEM over HTTPS.
Notes
- Both
TLSv1.2andTLSv1.3can be specified if required; include both protocols in theenabled-protocolsattribute as needed. - Ensure all platform components (JBoss, JDK, OS) comply with Adobe’s supported platform matrix before enabling TLS 1.3.
- Steps are based on standard configuration practices for RHEL environments but apply to Windows Server as described.
- Verification can be done by inspecting connection details in a supported browser after accessing AEM over HTTPS.
