JBoss ON CLI cannot connect to a server when agent-to-server uses sslsocket

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • We configure JBoss ON 3.2.0 so that agent-to-server communication uses "sslsocket" transport as per below extract of rhq-server.properties:
rhq.communications.connector.transport=sslsocket
rhq.communications.connector.bind-address=
rhq.communications.connector.bind-port=7453
rhq.communications.connector.transport-params=/jboss-remoting-servlet-invoker/ServerInvokerServlet

But then, connecting JBoss ON CLI to the server fails with the below error:

unconnected$ login rhqadmin rhqadmin servername 7080
