Keep getting error calling XML webservice from SoapUI

Question

I'm trying to call a webservice from SoapUI 5.6 with an JKS keystore. I'm new to XML and have only worked with JSON before.

I've created a project in SoapUI 5.6 from a WSDL and I've loaded a keystore into SoapUI with the correct password.

I get an SSLHandshakeError.

I read up on this and found that I needed to add this to vmoptions, which I did:

-Dsoapui.https.protocols=SSLv3,TLSv1.2

I tried both, and each of SSLv3 and TLSv1.2 by themselves. Same result.

Here are the logs:

Anyone got any idea? I'm new to XML and I don't know what's wrong.

This has nothing to do with XML. This is a problem with the two machines talking to each other over SSL. Going through [all this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/6353956/3124333) helped me when I was facing similar issue. — SiKing, Nov 30 '21 at 22:28
What could be the issue...? I use the certificate that was handed to the company I worked for, with the correct password. The service I'm calling is a huge public service I know works and I use their WSDL. Seems like nothing could be wrong..?? — SpringBootDev, Dec 01 '21 at 08:44
**Where** did you install the certificate? SoapUI, by default, uses it's own Java, which has it's own Certificate Store. Have a look at this https://siking.wordpress.com/2016/02/18/another-way-to-fix-sslhandshakeexception-in-soapui/ — SiKing, Dec 08 '21 at 16:33
