Answer 1

I have two possible solutions to this:

• Your stack trace chain includes a nested exception with the message

org.jboss.remoting.CannotConnectException: Can not connect http client invoker. cannot retry due to redirection, in streaming mode. Response : Found/302

So are you absolutely sure you're pointing at the correct URL? Looks like the JBoss code isn't handling a 302 redirect.

• I have a vague memory that in order to use client-side SSL in JBoss, you first need to configure the server-side part

In other words, your JBOss's web server must have its SSL connector fully configured in order to receive asynch callbacks from the client call. This sounds pretty daft, but it's worth investigating, since I've come across something similar before.

So have a dig aout in jboss-web's server.xml and see if the SSL connector is there and configured. This bit of config includes a keystore URL, and if that's not configured, that might explain the "cannot find keystore" exception.
