Build Identifier: 

I have included the eclipse help system via webapp plugin in my RAP application.
All works fine accessing the help via http-access.

Using https an SSLException will be thrown:


2012-01-19 15:20:40.422:WARN::EXCEPTION
javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?

Is this a bug or my mistake?

Reproducible: Always

Problem solved.

The URL calling help has to resolve the protocol and the port to use https.
Protocol wasn't  paid attention.
