How do I send data from Java to Splunk using SSL connection?

[markmaple]

I am trying to send data from a Java program on one machine to Splunk on another machine using SSL. I have it working it using a regular Java socket, but not with an SSL socket.

In the Java code:

TrustManager[] allowAllCerts = new TrustManager[] { new X509TrustManager() {

    @Override
    public void checkClientTrusted(final X509Certificate[] chain, final String authType) {
 }

    @Override
    public void checkServerTrusted(final X509Certificate[] chain, final String authType) {
 }

    @Override
    public X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
        return null;
    }

} };

String trustStore = "C:/Users/mwmapl/Misc/AWE/truststore.ts";
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", trustStore);
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "password");

try {

// Install the all-trusting trust manager
SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
sslContext.init(null, allowAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom()); 

} catch(KeyManagementException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch(NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

SSLSocketFactory factory = (SSLSocketFactory) SSLSocketFactory.getDefault();

socket = factory.createSocket(hostname, port);

pwsock = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream());

pwsock.println(messageToSend);
pwsock.close();
socket.close();

In the Splunk file (Splunk\etc\system\local\inputs\inputs.conf):

[default]
host = 95D10012928

[tcp-ssl:8100]
disabled = 0

[SSL]
password = $1$S7P49guHmKbl
requireClientCert = false
rootCA = C:/Program Files/Splunk/etc/auth/cacert.pem
serverCert = C:/Program Files/Splunk/etc/auth/server.pem

splunkd.log

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
