Dear Jetty supporters
With the migration to photon I found the following situation.
We start Jetty to use https only. We don’t create any HTTP connector.
We use Equinox as the runtime and the org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty bundle.
Starting our server runtime, I got the following message:
2018-07-24 14:42:34.274:INFO::Start Level: Equinox Container: bb6dc872-7353-4bdd-9511-a5529a94cf2c: Logging initialized @5168ms to org.eclipse.jetty.util.log.StdErrLog

Having a look into the class org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty.internal.HttpServerManager and the updated function I recognized the following:
In this class there is command sequence starting from line 129:
if (httpsConnector != null) {
int port = httpsConnector.getLocalPort();
if (port == -1)
port = httpsConnector.getPort();
holder.setInitParameter(JettyConstants.HTTPS_PORT, Integer.toString(port));
String host = httpConnector.getHost();
if (host != null)
holder.setInitParameter(JettyConstants.HTTPS_HOST, host);
}
The problem is the line: String host = httpconnector.getHost();
That create a null string (as we did not configure anything for http)
Changing this line to: String host = httpsconnector.getHost;
solves the problem. The one “s” missing is important.
I don’t know if this is an issue with jetty or with equinox?
What is the best way to correct the line in the repo?
