Hy
I try to connect a java program to an REST API.
With the same part of code I have a Java Exception in Java 6 and it works fine in Java 8.
It's the same environment :
- trustore
- machine
- unix user
the code :
import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class MainClass {
public static void main (String[] args){
String serviceUrl = "https://api.domain.com" + "/endpont/path";
try {
URL url = new URL(serviceUrl);
URLConnection connection = null;
try{
connection = url.openConnection();
connection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json");
String body = "";
String inputLine;
DataInputStream input = new DataInputStream (connection.getInputStream());
while (((inputLine = input.readLine()) != null)){
body += inputLine;
}
System.out.println(body);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
the error in Java 6 : sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
Somebody know how it's different ? Can I use some tricks to have the same result in Java 6 ?
The CN of the cert is a wildcard : "*.domain.com" . It can be the cause ?
I tried several api but there all used the sun SSL layer. Do you know an other to replace it ?
