不支持基于https协议的地址-javax.xml.ws.Endpoint

Question

I'm trying to create a web service independent or Tomcat of any other Application Server, works well with http, but with https I get the error below. Seems all the documentation relates either to a client example or application server example. A link to a good tutorial would be great.

Thanks!

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: https protocol based address is not supported   
     at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.server.EndpointImpl.publish(EndpointImpl.java:149)           
     at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.spi.ProviderImpl.createAndPublishEndpoint(ProviderImpl.java:107)            

     at javax.xml.ws.Endpoint.publish(Endpoint.java:181)    

Answer 1

If you used something like

Endpoint.publish("https://localhost:9999/abc", new YourEndpoint());

to publish your web service endpoint, and got specified exception - looks like internal JDK web server does not support HTTPS.

Please refer here for more information: JAX-WS2 and HTTPS .
And this page has Jetty related information, but it is useful as well: Jetty Webservice - https protocol based address is not supported .

If you don't want to mess with "heavy" Tomcat server, you can use something lightweight.
These pages have good examples of doing it: Java Webservice using HTTPS part 1 and How to develop a standalone SSL web service .

It does not answer question to not use any application server at all, but hope it helps.
