Configuring Weblogic Server for X.509 Smart Card Authentication

Question

I am running Oracle Weblogic 11g (10.3.6) and attempting to configure two-way SSL (client certificate requested and enforced). The client certificate is on a smart card.
I have enabled "basic" ssl in the weblogic server, and used keytool to import the relevant root CA certificates into the DemoTruststore.jks file. I have set the Two-way client cert behavior to Client Certs Requested and Enforced for the server.
Unfortunately, attempting to access my application causes the following:
<pre>
<Certificate chain received from 127.0.0.1 - 127.0.0.1 was incomplete.>
<NO_CERTIFICATE alert was received from 127.0.0.1 - 127.0.0.1. Verify the SSL configuration has a proper SSL certificate chain and private key specified.>
<Certificate chain received from 127.0.0.1 - 127.0.0.1 was incomplete.>
</pre>
The ActivClient dialog never appears to select a certificate from the Smart Card, and a pin is never requested. Therefore, I think I misconfigured something.
Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Mukunthan Damodharan,
this means that the SSL Server Certificate has not his fully quallified name in the subject alternative name extension of the X.509 certificate.
You can create a valid one or disbale that check in the Secure Login Client.
How does the configuration gets to the clients?
With the Policy Download you can disable that check over the Secure Login Server Administration console in the corresponding authentication profile.
If manually you can change the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\SAP\SecureLogin\profiles\<profile name>
"sslHostAlternativeNameCheck"=dword:00000000
the value 0 disable that check on the client.
