I am trying to pull/push using https. The error message is https://www.xxx.xx/xxx.git: cannot open git-upload-pack= When I am using http everything works fine. I looked at apache access log and when I use https git does not try to access the server (no access log entry for that). http.sslVerify=false The same repository works over https with msysgit using command line.
EGit/JGit differs slightly from CGit in its handling of http.sslVerify=false. The main difference is that JGit will still verify the hostname of the certificate against the hostname you are trying pull/push. So if your SSL certificate is built for a different hostname then you are pulling/pushing against then JGit will fail. This is a problem which I *hope* will be fixed in the next release. It was discussed on the JGit mailing list last June.
Ok. But my ssl certificate is valid. I have a StartSSL (StarCom) SSl certificate. CGit validates it.
And the hostname built into your certificate matches the hostname of your pull/push url? If so then your issue may be different, but the symptoms and description match exactly to certificate hostname verification that JGit does and CGit does not.

Hmmm. I bet this is still hostname verification. After viewing your certificate with FireFox, it looks like you have a wildcard certificate. I think from JGit's perspective, "*.bytehat.com" != "www.bytehat.com". JGit uses Sun/Oracle's default hostname verifier. I do not know if it supports wildcard verification.
