Sending Soap requests thru Https

[vignesh bala]

Hi all,
I am trying to access a web service which is running in SSL (Https). The problem is the message sending fails ant its throwing "com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.SOAPExceptionImpl: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.SOAPExceptionImpl: Message send failed". The Code fragment is shown below:

SOAPConnectionFactory scf = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection connection = scf.createConnection();
// Create a request message
MessageFactory msgFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
.
.
.
SOAPMessage reply = connection.call(requestMsg, 
                    new URL("https://{URL}"));
//
SOAPMessage requestMsg = msgFactory.createMessage();

I don't know whether I can invoke a Https URL as shown above. Please clarify me. I am also giving my error log below:

This introduction to SAAJ talks about what needs to be done to connect to a WS over HTTPS (on the last few pages). There are few things that need to be set up in order for it to work.
