My application is trying to a https://xyz.com from java code and i am getting the above exception.
I tried connecting to "https://xyz.com " from my workspace via Websphere 5.1 server and my server is throwing the above exception. I have extened the ibmjsse provided by WAS 5.1 and using it for connecting to the HTTPS URL.
I feel the above problem might be due to network issues. Please help me in resolving the same.
Thanks in advance !!!!!

Answer 1

Steps i have done to ensure the connectivity :
Method A :
1) I imported the pfx and CA certificates given by xyz.com in my web browser (IE)
2) After that, I tried connecting to "https://xyz.com" from browser and getting a proper response.
Method B :
1) I updated the jre cacert with CA certificate given by xyz.com
2) Loaded the pfx keystore from my java client code program and ran it as a java standalone code and got the proper response.
My java code
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection;
import javax.net.ssl.*;
import java.security.*;
import java.sql.Time;
public class HTTPSConnect{
     public static void main(String[] args)
               URL url;
               StringBuffer buffer;
               String line;
               int responseCode=0;
               HttpsURLConnection connection = null;
               InputStream input;
               BufferedReader dataInput;
               //FIS Sample URL
               String fisURL = "https://xyz.com";
               String fisResp = "";
               try
               Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
               System.setProperty("javax.net.debug", "all");
               String path = "F:\\MyCertificate.pfx";
               String type = "pkcs12";
               String password = "abc123";
               System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType", type);
               System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore",path);
               System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword",password);
                    url = new URL(fisURL);
                    //Create the connection
                    connection = (HttpsURLConnection) url.openConnection();
                    connection.setUseCaches(false);
                    //Get the response code for the HTTPS connection
                    responseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
               if (200 == responseCode)
                    buffer = new StringBuffer();
                    //Getting the FIS Response XML using the Stream reader
                    input = connection.getInputStream();
                    dataInput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(input));
                         while ((line = dataInput.readLine()) != null)
                              buffer.append(line);
                              buffer.append('\n');
                    fisResp = (String) buffer.toString().trim();
               else
                    System.out.println("HTTP Status-Code : " + responseCode);
               catch (MalformedURLException mue)
                    System.out.println("Exception in URL : " + mue.getMessage() );
                    mue.printStackTrace();
               catch (IOException ioe)
                    System.out.println("IO Exception : " + ioe.getMessage() );
                    ioe.printStackTrace();
               catch (Exception e)
                    System.out.println("Exception : " + e.getMessage() );
                    e.printStackTrace();
               System.out.println("FIX XML Response : " + fisResp);
               System.out.println("Response Code of HTTPS Connection : " + responseCode);
Please let me know if i am missing something :)
