I have found out that certain misconfigured servers send an "Unrecognized Name" warning in the SSL handshake which is ignored by most clients... except for Java. Update: for SoapUI 5.2.1 I had to alter a file SoapUI-5.2.1.vmoptions because modifying bat file did not help. If problem not solve then please go through this link. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23932517 Re: Getting error as "ERROR:java.net.SocketException: Connection reset" WINDOWS Option 1: find the following file on your computer (make sure you have write access to the file): C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\SoapUI-5.2.1.vmoptions Add the following line to the file: -Dsoapui.https.protocols="SSLv3,TLSv1.2" Run SoapUI with the .exe file (SoapUI-5.2.1.exe) Option 2: (if option 1 does not work for you). Edit the following batch file on your computer (make sure you have write access to the file): C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\soapui.bat Add the following line to the file (after: if "%SOAPUI_HOME%" == "" goto START): set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dsoapui.https.protocols="SSLv3,TLSv1.2" Run SoapUI with the batch file (soapui.bat) MAC (OSX) The default install location for Mac is in the root Applications folder, and the vmoptions.txt file is in there. Right-click the SOAPUI .app file (in the /Applications folder), and choose "Show Package Contents" to get to the internal files. /Applications/SoapUI-X.X.X.app/Contents/vmoptions.txt Add the following line to the vmoptions.txt file: -Dsoapui.https.protocols=TLSv1.2 LINUX Edit: bin/SoapUI-5.3.0.vmoptions in SoapUI directory Add the following line to the file: -Dsoapui.https.protocols=TLSv1.2 I hope it helps.
