  • 1.  SSL Handshake error : unknown_ca

    Posted Mar 12, 2018 05:49 AM

    Hi,

     

    I am getting unknown_ca error for ssl handshake while hitting a REST web service through LISA. When I hit the webservice through browser, it says the certificate is not trusted but there is an option to ignore this and after which evreything works fine.

     

    How can i replicate this behavior in LISA i.e to ignore untrusted certificates and get the response.

    DevTest (formerly LISA) is a system test tool, and, as such, cannot be configured to ignore security errors. 

     

    The SSL/TLS implementation is the standard Java implementation - in Java the Certificate Authorities are stored in a file called "cacerts" that lives in the Java installation - adding the correct certificates to this file should resolve your issue.

     

    DevTest ships with its own Java run-time, so the file you would need to update is located under your installation directory in jre/lib/security.
