Sometimes the code below fails and sometimes it work. I'm using Java8. Is it a server side problem?
Exception in thread "main" javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unsupported record version Unknown-0.0.
EDIT: I downgrade to JDK7 from JDK8 and it works. The only solution i found that works.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
URL u = new URL("https://c********.web.cddbp.net/webapi/xml/1.0/");
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) u.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setInstanceFollowRedirects(false);
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/plain");
connection.setRequestProperty("charset", "utf-8");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", "" + 140);
connection.setUseCaches(false);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
}
I got the same error message in a new java installation when trying to use an SSL connection that enforces 256-bit encryption. To fix the problem I found I needed to install the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files (e.g. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-7-download-432124.html)
