I have a JMX application which creates a private MBeanServer and export it
using an RMI Connector Server.

If I try to connect jvisualvm to that application using
"Add JMX Connection", the little red icon in the bottom right corner starts blinking
and the exception below appears in the log. The connection fails to open and
there's no way I can see my MBeans.
