        Service service = new Service("xyz.xyz.xyz.xyz", 8089);
        String credentials = "username:password";
        String basicAuthHeader = Base64.encode(credentials.getBytes());
        service.setToken("Basic " + basicAuthHeader);
        // Print the session token
        System.out.println("Your session token: " + service.getToken());

Please shed the light if you know how to resolve this. I am seeing the same error. The code worked locally but failed when deploy the connection client to weblogic server 12c.
