Proxy configuration issues with jvisualvm

I have tried the jvisualvm.exe in my JDK (1.6.0_15-b03) to reload the plugin catalog, by following

Tools > Plugins > Updates > Reload Catalog

However; no matter what proxy configuration I try (I also tried to test it on another JVM 1.6 update 23) and does not seem to to work. I get the following errors irrespective of my proxy setup.

Unable to connect to the Java VisualVM Plugins Center because of sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Here is the error window that comes up [please see attached image]certificate error

Is this a known problem or some certification issue? I have never created a trust store on my machine, could this be a problem?

Another way to achieve this is to download the plugins manually and then install it on JVisualVM.

Here are the steps :

  1. Start with picking up a version of the plugin from : https://visualvm.github.io/pluginscenters.html
  2. And then download the particular plugin (the file's extension would be ".nbm") that you want to install.
  3. Then, in JVisualVM, go to Tools > Plugin > Downloaded ; then click "Add Plugins" and select the previously downloaded file.
  4. Once, it shows up in the "Downloaded" plugins tab, then click "Install"

Hope this helps...

The VisualVM was migrated to Github so the plugins center is now Here

but to make it short what you need to do is
open VisualVM
open Tools -> Plugins -> Settings
on the right column ("Java VisualVM Plugins Center") click Edit
replace whatever you have there with : https://visualvm.github.io/uc/8u131/updates.xml.gz
