[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JBRULES-3027) Guvnor repository connection does not support https connections

[RH Bugzilla Integration (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-3027?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12735526#comment-12735526 ] 

RH Bugzilla Integration commented on JBRULES-3027:
--------------------------------------------------

Jervis Liu <jliu at redhat.com> made a comment on [bug 786373|https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=786373]

Further investigation shows the problem comes from the Eclipse WebDav plugin. Guvnor eclipse plugin uses Eclipse WebDav plugin to connect to Guvnor WebDav server. Eclipse WebDav plugin does not support SSL, similar bug report had been reported before (also the "Unexpected end of stream." error), see below:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=54287
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=148867

Unfortunately Eclipse WebDav plugin is not under active development anymore and these bugs are not going to be fixed.

We will need to completely rewrite our Guvnor eclipse plugin based Eclipse Web Tools or other technologies.
