HTTP test case Java Error

When running a http test case on a https url I have randomly gotten this error.

2013-12-18 13:18:06 - Error getting response; java.lang.IllegalStateException: Scheme 'https' not registered.


this only happens on my machine. Any idea on what can be causing this?

  • I think the issue may be somewhere with the port. SSL (for HTTPS) uses port 443. Is port 443 already used somewhere in your machine?

    the service i'm testing is on an isolated system, it's reached by port forwarding to another port on that webserver. Port 443 isn't being used on this computer.

    This happens intermittently using the same configurations and connections. After encountering it for a week sometimes it'll go away for a month, sometimes it only happens for a day or so.

    That sounds like a network issue, I would expect for you to get that consistently if it was a problem in SoapUI. What kind of tests are you doing in SoapUI for that service?

    It's an HTTP request step that will log into a site via a SSL cert and send a file. The site itself is in an isolated environment through some tunnels to a VPN. I can access and use this resource from the browser when this is occurring through the same port forwarding and tunnels, so the network is definitely still reachable :\ it's certainly an odd thing that occurs. I should note that when this error happens, it happens for days, but the network configuration is identical each time via a saved shell script, so it should theoretically be the same each time.
