Antwort: [ebxmlms-general] client authentication between 2 partners

[<Chr...@ml...>]

Hi,

> - when I send from partner A to partner B, I get the error "Received
> fatal alert: bad_certificate during SSLHandshake"

once I had similar problems with access to a server with a self certified
server key:

the certificate of parner B (or more precisely: of the CA that certified
partner B) is not included in the cacerts file of partner A's Java
environment.

If a browser connects to a server, where the certficate of the CA is not
kwown, the user is asked how to proceed. In the case of connecting from
tomcat, the certificate is required.

If your partner B server's key is self certified, just include it into the
cacerts file of partner A (.../jre/lib/security/cacerts).

Bye
