  1. Run with the debug flags on (-Djavax.net.debug=ssl,handshhake)
  2. Do you instruct the JVM about the correct location of the keystore/truststore? (javax.net.ssl.keyStore, javax.net.ssl.trustStore, javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword)

  • @hanu: Just run your program with these options -Dparameter=value. Debugging options will turn on detailed info. Also run your program with: `java -Djavax.net.debug=ssl,handshhake -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=trustedcerts.jks com.example.MyClass` – Anonymous Apr 20 '12 at 13:04

Thank you all..

Solution: There will be two JRE's -one is under jdk1.2... and second one is directly under java folder. You need to install or import the website security certificates using keytool command under the jre which is in your ide's installed JRE's

For Eclipse IDE: go to windows->preferences-> installed jre's Then it will show you the installed jre's path.

You need to import the certificate into that particular jre..

Using the keytool command is as follows: C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin>keytool -import -alias aliasname -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -file "D:\Softwares\certificates\mycert.cer"
