I'm trying to get an Axis2/Rampart client web services application to work. My server is using a self-signed certificate, as this is just a test. I'm running into the error:
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: Connection has been > shutdown: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: > sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: > sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find > valid certification path to requested target > at org.apache.axis2.AxisFault.makeFault(AxisFault.java:430) > at > org.apache.axis2.transport.http.SOAPMessageFormatter.writeTo(SOAPMessageFormatter.java:83) > at > org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisRequestEntity.writeRequest(AxisRequestEntity.java:84) > at > org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.EntityEnclosingMethod.writeRequestBody(EntityEnclosingMethod.java:499) > at > org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase.writeRequest(HttpMethodBase.java:2114) > ... > I'm using FreeBSD and OpenJDK6 on this machine. There's a Java KeyStore at "/usr/local/openjdk6/jre/lib/security/cacerts" which I'm assuming is the one I want to add this certificate to. Would adding my certificate to some (if not this one) "cacerts" keystore force Axis2 to trust my certificate? -- Jay Sullivan
