             Summary: Perform meaningful validation on keystore and truststore 
files when using SSL
                 Key: GEODE-5227
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5227
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: native client
            Reporter: Ryan McMahon


*_As_* a customer

*_I want to_* get meaningful error feedback when I provide invalid paths or 
file contents for `ssl-keystore` or `ssl-truststore`

*_So that_* I can fix the problem without guess-work

If you provide invalid path (e.g. non-existent) for the `ssl-keystore` or 
`ssl-truststore` config properties, the SSL handshake still proceeds and fails 
with an obscure error message

"TcpSslConn::connect failed with errno: 336462231: Unknown error"

and in the locator logs we get:

"javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: null cert chain"

You get a similar error if the .pem file contents are malformed or out of order.

We should do proper validation on the .pem files provided in `ssl-keystore` and 
`ssl-truststore` and provide a meaningful error if they are not found or 
malformed.
