Description Jan Hrcek 2015-11-10 07:52:40 UTC 
Description of problem:
Please add documentation about the setup needed to be able to clone repositories with URLs starting with 'https://' in business-central.

How cloning is done in general: To clone a repository in business-central, users must go to to Authoring > Administration perspective. There they choose Repositories > Clone repository and fill in some details, including URL of the repository to clone and click Clone button.

Issue to document: when business-central is deployed in WebLogic container, the cloning from URLs starting with https:// is not working out of the box (see bug #1275752). WebLogic needs some initial setup in order to make this work.

Specifically users need to set java system property -DUseSunHttpHandler=true when starting the WebLogic server, as described in the following stackoverflow answer [1]

This information should most likely go to Administration & configuration guide.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
