  • 1.  Disable SSL certificate verification

    Posted 11-18-2020 16:28

    Hello, 

    I trying to get some data from Avid INEWS, using their REST API web protocol.

    Now , when I do asyncPost from Dashboard to the https URL, I getting that error:

    sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target.

    But, if i do GET to that URL from chrome browser,  i see json response. 

    Is there a way to disable that in dashboard? 

    Also, i saw that in other topic that it is possible to add to DashBoard.ini file that setting:

    -Dcom.sun.net.ssl.checkRevocation=false

    Unfortunately, its doesn't helps.

    Other workflow can be importing that certificate (that i have downloaded using chrome, it have .cer extension), but i have no idea how to do that.

    Thanks,

     

    Alex.

    Hi Alex

    Your question has not been ignored but I do not yet have a solution to recommend to you. If you did want to try the keytool route, you would need to make sure you are using the tool and keystore that are part of your DashBoard install since it uses a private copy of the Java runtime.  This is located in your DashBoard install folder inside the "jre" subfolder.  You will find keytool.exe in the bin folder.

    Cheers

    James

    Has there been any update on this since 2020?  I have the same issue and have added the following line to DashBoard.ini but still get the same error

    -Dcom.sun.net.ssl.checkRevocation=false

    Hello James, and thank you for the reply.
    I did that (updated the private java runtime located in dashboard folder using portecle utility). I was sure that it will solve my problem, but, for some reason, i still get the same error. Maybe something wrong with the key sertificate , but when i test that url in portecle, i get the sertificate, download it, in import to java keystore. Then i save, exit, re-enter to ensure that the sertificate still there, everything looks good. But still i get the same error...
