Description of problem:
If set the parameter VIRTWHO_ESX_SERVER started with "https://", virt-who can work fine in ESX mode.
But if set this parameter without "https://", virt-who cannot work.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-who-0.8-4.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the ESX parameters in file /etc/sysconfig/virt-who to make virt-who working in ESX mode:
   VIRTWHO_DEBUG=1
   VIRTWHO_ESX=1
   VIRTWHO_ESX_OWNER=ACME_Corporation
   VIRTWHO_ESX_ENV=env1
   VIRTWHO_ESX_SERVER=10.66.xx.xx
   VIRTWHO_ESX_USERNAME=<username>
   VIRTWHO_ESX_PASSWORD=<password>

2. Restart service virt-who
   # service virt-who restart
   Stopping virt-who:                                         [  OK  ]
   Starting virt-who:                                         [  OK  ]

3. check the log file:
   # tail -f /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log

   ^^^^^ There's error log, and virt-who cannot work


4. Set the parameter VIRTWHO_ESX_SERVER started with "https://":
   VIRTWHO_ESX_SERVER=https://10.66.xx.xx

5. Restart service virt-who
   # service virt-who restart
   Stopping virt-who:                                         [  OK  ]
   Starting virt-who:                                         [  OK  ]

6. Check the log file:
   # tail -f /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log
    2012-10-25 16:48:35,353 [WARNING]  @virt-who.py:462 - Listening for events is not available in VDSM, ESX, RHEV-M or Hyper-V mode

   ^^^^^ no more errors and virt-who starts to sending host/guest associations
  

Actual results:
As list.

Expected results:
virt-who can work whenever "https://" is added to parameter VIRTWHO_ESX_SERVER or not.
