Hi,

We have an application to consume webservice over SSL. We have created stub using AXIS2 1.6.2 and application is deployed in websphere 8.5.5.4. Below error is thrown when it initiates the request over SSL. Please advise whether any extra settings required on the Websphere side.

Hello,

First thing I would look at:

This can occur if javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory.getDefault() is called to create a socket and javax.net.ssl.* properties are not set.
