Java Security

I have a J2EE application running on a unix box, to access it, the url is :
https://company.inside.net/sampleapp

I have an htmlUnit test case to run against this, I have attached the code
:
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();

urlString = "https://company.inside.net/sampleapp";

webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(false);
webClient.setThrowExceptionOnFailingStatusCode(false);
HtmlPage loginPage = null;
try
{
webClient.setUseInsecureSSL(true);
loginPage = (HtmlPage)webClient.getPage(urlString);
}
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
fail("Login failed"+e.getMessage());
}

when I run the test, I get the following error.. on the following line :

---> ' fail("Login failed"+e.getMessage());'
