java – Uri not Absolute exception getting while calling Restful Webservice

java – Uri not Absolute exception getting while calling Restful Webservice

An absolute URI specifies a scheme; a URI that is not absolute is said to be relative.

So, perhaps your URLEncoder isnt working as youre expecting (the https bit)?

    URLEncoder.encode(uri) 

The problem is likely that you are calling URLEncoder.encode() on something that already is a URI.
