To resolve issues like this, we would suggest the following: 1. Connect directly to the server using your browser, determine the protocol and cipher that is used, and configure Burp to support just those. 2. Change the SSL workaround options at User options / SSL / Java SSL Options and Project options / SSL / SSL Negotiation 3. Try a different version of Java (6 or 7) since some issues with Java's SSL implementation are version-specific.
