HTTPS works fine but I get an IOException reading request on the server side

I am trying echo client to connect to echo service over HTTPS. It works fine -- meaning that service is echoing back the request message back to the client. However, I see the following exception trace at the service side:

Here is my client Code:

"javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "WebContent\\WEB-INF\\conf\\PingClient-TrustStore.jks");"javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType", "JKS");"javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "password");new EchoStub(configContext, URL);"Hello There");out.println("Output: " + responseStr);catch (Exception e) {

EchoStub stub;

String URL =

String log4JProperties =

String configContextArg1 =

String configContextArg2 =

PropertyConfigurator.configure(log4JProperties);

ConfigurationContext configContext = ConfigurationContextFactory

.createConfigurationContextFromFileSystem(configContextArg1, configContextArg2);

System.setProperty(

stub =

EchoStringDocument echoStringDoc = EchoStringDocument.Factory.newInstance();

echoString.setIn(

String responseStr = response.getEchoStringResponse().getReturn();

System.

e.printStackTrace();
