I am trying to secure a web application so that I can use a secure data transport layer TLS/SSL with HTTPS. I am using glassfish server 5. After starting the server I did a https://localhost:8181 and it gave me this exception:

What could be the problem?
This is looks to be the same issue as this bug, which is caused by a change in Java 8 162, where that class was renamed. Which was a fix for this bug in OpenJDK which was changed here, but unfortunately that was a breaking change that introduced this issue as they renaming the class.
An alternative is to use Payara 5.182, a fork of glassfish which includes a fix for it.
