[Jessie-discuss] Paypal https failure

[Eric Wong]

The sample code below used to be working perfectly until recently (few
months back?). I am getting the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" javax.net.ssl.SSLProtocolException:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: unknown attribute 2.5.4.5

Funny thing is, other https seem to be working fine.

I am using GCJ 3.4.1, Jessie 1.0.0 with Gnu Crypto CVS dated May 2005.

I have no clue what went wrong. Any help appreciated. TIA!!

        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(

        String s = "";
        try {
                while ( ( s = in.readLine() ) != null ) {
                    System.out.println( s );
                }
        } catch( EOFException ignore ) {}

        in.close();
    }
