#180 pkisilent generates NullPointerException on connection error
Closed: Fixed Opened by edewata.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

The pkisilent may generate a NullPointerException if there's a connection problem. In ConfigureCA.java:234 if the hc.sslConnect() fails it will return a null instead of throwing an exception, so the next line will fail.

hr = hc.sslConnect(cs_hostname, cs_port, login_uri, query_string);
System.out.println("xml returned: " + hr.getHTML());

One solution is to modify sslConnect() to throw an exception containing a message describing the problem.
