General internal error using plugin (javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Received fatal alert: protocol_version) #90

Hi, I installed the plugin on Oxygen.3a Release (4.7.3a). Everytime I want to open a simple md-document I got the following error within a "Problem Occured"-window of eclipse.

An internal error occurred during: "Transforming: test.md". javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Received fatal alert: protocol_version

Afterwards the plugin crashes. May you help me?

Best regards Armin Wagenknecht

I downloaded that Eclipse version and it worked for me with Sun JDK 1.8.0_172. It's something to do with the JDK & GitHub. One workaround described at: https://github.com/jenkinsci/ghprb-plugin/issues/638 indicates a possible solution. Edit the eclipse.ini file in the launch folder for Oxygen and add a new line after the -vmargs line -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.2

Thanks for your help. Your suggestion did not work, but after I reinstalled eclipse and using the JDK 1.8.xx it works. Best regards
