RE: Apache SOAP does not recognbize https protocol?

Try adding the following javax debug flag to your runtime args

        -Djavax.net.debug=ssl

This will dump a bunch of ssl diagnostics.  More than likely you haven't trusted the server cert locally.  If so, you need to download and install the server certificate in the local keystore with the jdk's keytool command.

        keytool -import -alias some_alias_name -file path_to_server_cert.crt

I downloaded jdk1.4 and the https error msg is gone, but still there are exceptions from client and server. Please help more.

(again, tomcat/ssl/ is working fine from http and https browser requests).

client:

Yeah - you need to include the jsse.jar, jcert.jar and jnet.jar from Sun. The exception you're getting is cause the JDK doesn't contain support for URLs starting with https.. unknown protocol.. those 3 jar files are required to do that.
