Adaptive Web Services and HTTPS protocol

Question

Hello,
We have a webdynpro application using adaptive webservices to consume a web service provided by external apache tomcat server.
Using http protocol, everything works fine. But when we want to setup the destination using https protocol (e.g. https://tomcat.server:7443/app/inspection.wsil), we got
following webdynpro exception:
[code]
   java.io.IOException: Unable to open connection to proxy "tomcat.server:7443. opening proxy tunnel [failed][Socket output stream shutdown by peer.].
    at at com.tssap.dtr.client.lib.protocol.Connection.openSocket(Connection.java:2117)

[/code]
Debug messages in defaulttrace.trc just before the exception (location com.tssap.dtr.client.lib.protocol.Connection):
[code]

[/code]
It seems that it wants to open some proxy tunnel connection, but we are not using any proxy server in the communication.
Do you see any solutions?
Thanks,
Samuel

Hi Samuel,
          I guess its using proxy to access the tomcat server.Please add your
tomcat server in the exclude list of WS Global setting in the Netweaver administrator if you dont want to use proxy.It will work fine.
Thanks and Regards
