hi all,

when connecting to a proxy server via SSL i get an exception:
java.io.IOException: Unable to tunnel through proxy...com:8080.
Proxy returns "HTTP/1.1 200 Connection established"

i looked at the source code on the sun pages, and here it is:
Code:
/* We asked for HTTP/1.0, so we should get that back */
if (!replyStr.startsWith("HTTP/1.0 200")) {
ok, http 1.1 is only 6 years old, so i could not expect that it also made its way into java

i have found only one site on the web about this bug (http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/j...avatip111.html) but the solution there is of no use to me because the guy who wrote this article is using the URLConnection instead of HttpsURLConnection

do you have heard about that bug or have seen a solution?

please help if you can

thanks,
big nell
