Hi, are there any trouble-shooting issues along with answers or comments regarding connection of WebLogic server to Splunk SDK for Java.

For your information, the Splunk head uses HTTPS and Weblogic is connecting as a client to the Splunk head.
The Splunk heads SSL certificate has been trusted by the Weblogic client.

Here are some excerpts from error messages:

From the call stack, the login request itself was successful, however, response processing of a later request failed.

Running an http trace to see that later request and response seems to be a good first step.

Have you resolved the issue? Were you asking how to get http trace?

So, basically what you're saying is to debug the trace...?
Any other details?
