I hope to test my assumption this week.
The reason is that if you look at line 404 

https://github.com/apache/manifoldcf/blob/trunk/framework/connector-common/src/main/java/org/apache/manifoldcf/connectorcommon/keystore/KeystoreManager.java

It creates an sslcontext witj ssl only Support but no TLS.

That is why I assume that it you add custom cas it downgrades always to SSL and 
if you have a custom CA and TLS only it will not work. 
The same issue is for the Solr connector - however if you do not specify there 
cas then the certificate is not validated and the default protocol set of the 
JDk is used (which includes TLS). 

It is just an assumption that needs to be tested. 
While I cannot be sure that this is exactly the problem i face - this line 
looks strange and should be checked. Maybe it is harmless. 

A similar line was in the gts connector. Maybe if one searches we find others. 
Eg i also found a line where there is TLS mentioned instead of SSL.
