Help! ClassCastException with Tomcat and HttpsUrlConnectionOldImpl

Hi,

I am trying to perform an HTTPS call from a servlet running under Tomcat 5.5, JDK 1.5.0 . When I do, I get this error:

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionOldImpl

at rcopia.util.WebUtils.setAutoVerify(WebUtils.java:1398)

at rcopia.util.WebUtils.getURLConnection(WebUtils.java:1377)

(etc).

I have included

System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs", "javax.net.ssl");

but it doesn't seem to help. How can I get Tomcat to use the new javax.net JSSE rather than the old com.sun.net... packages it is rying to use?

Please help!

Don't do that. It's for JDK 1.3 and the JSSE extension.

I removed all references to this and it still fails. Does anyone have any other ideas to try?

Thanks,
