Hi All
Can any one out there help me on SSL. Am trying to open a HTTPS URL that require a certificate from the client.
I have a certificate and it works with internet explorer.I have imported the same certificate to my keystore using keytool. I want to open the same URL in java.
In my java code I have pointed where my keystore in this snipet
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore","C:\\Temp\\mykeystore.jks");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword", "secure");
System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs","javax.net.ssl");

Now my problem is when I try to open the URL in java I get this exception:

Why didn't you post in the security forum? One of the named subjects is SSL.

You shouldn't have created a new post but waited for one of us bartenders / sheriffs to move this thread. UseOneThreadPerQuestion
Since you've created another thread this one is now closed.
