      Once I upgraded to Jenkins 1.5, my slave agent ("mac-mini") could no longer connect. Here's an example session (I changed the hostname and credentials to protect the guilty):

      $ java -jar ./slave.jar -jnlpCredentials myuser:mypassword -jnlpUrl https://ci.mydomain.com/jenkins/computer/mac-mini/slave-agent.jnlp -noCertificateCheck
      Skipping HTTPS certificate checks altoghether. Note that this is not secure at all.

      I then used Charles Proxy to capture the HTTP traffic to see what was going on. I've attached a file of that capture, but the relevant problem is here:

      <argument>-url</argument><argument>http://ci.mydomain.com/jenkins/</argument>
      

      The problem is that the slave is being told to connect via HTTP, but (thanks to our proxy) Jenkins is only available via HTTPS. I checked my configuration and it is correct. I believe the issue is caused by this change on January 15th. The protocol of the request from Apache to Jenkins is HTTP, however the client must use HTTPS as I configured our root URL.
