I am getting the below error while getting the test case execution records from RQM using url utility,

Default cookie policy RFC_2109 is used.
RQMUrlUtility: Connected to https://localhost:9443 using project "Demo"
Attempting to create SSL_TLS context

Hi libin,
When was the last time it worked?
What has changed?
What version of RQM are you using?

Possible cause:
It looks like your version of Java has been updated and is preventing the connection due to the "Poodle" attack. See https://poodle.io/. Or, you are using and old version of Java and a new version of RQM that is blocking SSLv3 connections and is enforcing TLS connections. Or, there is a proxy between you and the RQM server that is blocking SSLv3 connections and is enforcing TLS connections and version of Java does not support TLS connections.

Possible solutions:
Try upgrading to the latest version of Java.

Simon
