Unsupported record version SSLv2Hello using CloseableHttpClient


I am trying to make an https call and getting the following error: Unsupported record version SSLv2Hello

Can anyone please shed some light on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

Here is the StackTrace:

Solution

  • Figured it out. The two places I tripped over my shoelaces were:

      Needed to register https with the PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager
      Set TLSv1 as the only supported protocol in the SSLConnectionSocketFactory
