JGit HTTPS cloning is not working

Question

I am having the Geritt GitHub Url : https://mycompany.com/gerrit/p/my-services.git

I cloned via terminal it is working fine : git clone https://mycompany.com/gerrit/p/my-services.git

When I use the java code to clone using JGit , It is throwing error like "UnknownHostException",

I am wondering when I clone in Terminal(https://mycompany.com/gerrit/p/my-services.git) it is working fine, But When I try it with JGit , it is throwing error ? Why it is not recognizing that domain on JGit ?

Error log is,

org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.TransportException: https://mycompany.com/gerrit/p/my-services.git: cannot open git-upload-pack

My code is,

// I am using the below code to trust all the https urls,

// Create a trust manager that does not validate certificate chains

TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] { 
    new X509TrustManager() {     
        public java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() { 
            return null;
        } 
        public void checkClientTrusted( 
            java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String authType) {
            } 
        public void checkServerTrusted( 
            java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] certs, String authType) {
        }
    } 
}; 

// Install the all-trusting trust manager
try {
    SSLContext sc = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL"); 
    sc.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom()); 
    HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(sc.getSocketFactory());
} catch (GeneralSecurityException e) {

}


String url = "https://mycompany.com/gerrit/p/my-services.git";
String username = "username";
String password = "password";
String checkoutLocation = "/Users/testing";
String branch = "my-services-sample-test";

UsernamePasswordCredentialsProvider userCredential = new UsernamePasswordCredentialsProvider(username, password);
Git r = Git.cloneRepository().setDirectory(new File(checkoutLocation + "/clonned"))
.setCredentialsProvider(userCredential)
.setURI(url)

I got the solution. An Eclipse community member gave me some ideas on it.

Here's that thread: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1176786/#msg_1176786

I needed to set the proxy configuration for JGit, using the ProxySelector class.

ProxySelector.setDefault(new ProxySelector(){
    final ProxySelector delegate = ProxySelector.getDefault();

    @Override
    public List<Proxy> select(URI uri) {
        // Filter the URIs to be proxied

        if (uri.toString().contains("github") && uri.toString().contains("https")) {
            return Arrays.asList(new Proxy(Type.HTTP,
              InetSocketAddress.createUnresolved("localhost", 3128)));
        }
        if (uri.toString().contains("github") & uri.toString().contains("http")) {
            return Arrays.asList(new Proxy(Type.HTTP,
              InetSocketAddress.createUnresolved("localhost", 3129)));
        }

        // revert to the default behaviour
        return delegate == null ? Arrays.asList(Proxy.NO_PROXY) : delegate.select(uri);
    }

    @Override
    public void connectFailed(URI uri, SocketAddress sa, IOException ioe) {
        if (uri == null || sa == null || ioe == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Arguments can't be null.");
        }
    }
});

In my case "localhost"/3128 and localhost"/3129 were the HTTPS and HTTP proxy URL/Port respectively, that I wanted to use.

It worked well.
