I am getting "java.lang.ClassCastException" while trying to connect to a url using javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection .
I am using Weblogic Server 10.3.4.
import javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier;

String urlstr="https://www.google.co.in";
URL url = new URL(urlstr);
HttpsURLConnection conn = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
conn = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
if (conn instanceof javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection) {
System.out.println("*** openConnection returns an instanceof javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection");
}
if (conn instanceof HttpURLConnection) {
System.out.println("*** openConnection returns an instnace of HttpURLConnection");
}
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
BufferedReader reader = null;
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( conn.getInputStream()));
for (String line; (line = reader.readLine()) != null;) {
System.out.println("##### line iz :::"+line);
}
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
The exception which i am getting is :
**java.lang.ClassCastException: weblogic.net.http.SOAPHttpsURLConnection cannot be cast to javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection

Any possible reason of getting this error ?
I got the solution finally. If we are using Weblogic server, we must define:
set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -DUseSunHttpHandler=true
...in the class path inside the Server Domain.
This will tell the weblogic server to use the Sun Http Handlers and not install its own.
