             Summary: SSLSocketFactory.createSystemSSLContext causes 
java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: Password verification failed
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1320
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1320
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.3 Alpha1, 4.2.3, 4.2.2, 4.2.4, 4.3 Alpha2, 4.3 Final
         Environment: Java System Property javax.net.ssl.trustStore is set, but 
javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword is not.
            Reporter: Abe Backus


When the Java System property "javax.net.ssl.trustStore" is specified, but 
"javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword" is not, requests are encountering the 
exception listed below. This is reproducible in version 4.2.1 and looking at 
the relevant code, it should also be reproducible in all other versions as well.

This appears to be fixed if the password value for loading the keystore falls 
back to *null* instead of the empty string. I'm not sure if this problem also 
exists with the "javax.net.ssl.keyStore" logic as well, but I suspect it does.

The workaround is to set the "javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword" appropriately, 
assuming that you know the correct value.

Caused by: java.io.IOException: Keystore was tampered with, or password was 
incorrect
