Cannot disable SSL for JMX

Question

I am following this JMX guide here . Under the Disabling SSL section it says that com.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false JVM property can be set to disable SSL for JMX.

I am testing this on tomcat server. I edit the tomcat startup script catalina.sh and add this property.

This property is used by tomcat during startup:

Then I connect to tomcat using jconsole

It still tries to connect via SSL:

I've also tried this with Active MQ, SOAP UI etc with no luck.

Answer 1

Click on insecure. Jconsole complains there is no SSL and just warn you about that.
