Description

The particular symptoms of this in my case was that installing features from https source failed to work correctly resulting in a javax.net.ssl.SSLKeyException: RSA premaster secret error.

More details can be found at: http://karaf.922171.n3.nabble.com/Feature-file-downloading-issue-td957778.html#a959980

The solution was to change the bin/karaf script as follows:
exec $JAVA $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.endorsed.dirs="${JAVA_HOME}/lib/endorsed:${KARAF_HOME}/lib/endorsed" -Djava.ext.dirs="${JAVA_HOME}/lib/ext:${KARAF_HOME}/lib/ext" -Dstorage.location="${KARAF_HOME}/instances" -Dkaraf.home="$KARAF_HOME" -Dkaraf.base="$KARAF_BASE" -Djava.util.logging.config.file=$KARAF_BASE/etc/java.util.logging.properties $OPTS -classpath "$CLASSPATH" $MAIN "$@"
to:
exec $JAVA $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.endorsed.dirs="${JAVA_HOME}/lib/endorsed:${KARAF_HOME}/lib/endorsed" -Djava.ext.dirs="${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/ext:${KARAF_HOME}/lib/ext" -Dstorage.location="${KARAF_HOME}/instances" -Dkaraf.home="$KARAF_HOME" -Dkaraf.base="$KARAF_BASE" -Djava.util.logging.config.file=$KARAF_BASE/etc/java.util.logging.properties $OPTS -classpath "$CLASSPATH" $MAIN "$@"

Note: only change is ${JAVA_HOME}/lib/ext -> ${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/ext
