Thought I'd reply to my own message with some information that might be useful:
despite using keytool (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/solaris/keytool.html) to install the certificate, and various combinations of these properties to theoretically point to it (where keyStore and trustStorePass are paths to generated files): System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore",keyStore); System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword", keyPass); System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", trustStore); System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", trustStorePass); I never did get it to work that way. (I eventually built an SSLTest.java that JUST connected so I could eliminate other configuration issues, but even in that simplified context I couldn't get it working.) What finally worked for me (for the SSLTest program) was to put the certificate into the normal java location and over-write cacerts. I could do that since noone else is using Java on this server and this is the first time I've needed to place a certificate. i.e. I wasn't going to break something else in the process. I found this very useful tool during my research : http://dreamingthings.blogspot.com/2006/12/no-more-unable-to-find-valid.html I could have avoided three days waiting for the service-owner to send a certificate, had I known about it. Hope that helps someone else save time. - Shasta On Tue, Jun 23, 2009 at 8:34 AM, Shasta Willson<[email protected]> wrote: > I have an SSL secured web service to consume.
