    We have the same problem. Our developers just reported it today. The last time they used it successfully was July 17. I'm wondering if some windows updates  broke it.

    We are at version 12.2.1.2, too.

    windows version: 2007 and 2010

    Have you figured out what is wrong?

    Thanks

    I solved the problem.

    Add the following two settings to weblogic JAVA_OPTIONS

    -Dweblogic.security.SSL.enableJSSE=true  -Dweblogic.security.SSL.protocolVersion=TLS1

    the URL is the  same URL you use to login to the application in the browser.

    For where to set the JAVA_OPTIONS, I use linux server, I just set in the .bash_profile of the installation user account.

    Instead of put in .bash_profile, you can put in

    $DOMAIN_HOME/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh

    look for this comments "#  Set JAVA_OPTIONS to the java flags you want to pass to the vm. i.e.:", and add following two lines after the comments line

    JAVA_OPTIONS="${JAVA_OPTIONS}  -Dweblogic.security.SSL.protocolVersion=TLS1 -Dweblogic.security.SSL.enableJSSE=true"

    export JAVA_OPTIONS

    reboot the bi server.
