Question

I am trying to connect a https server running in Tibco in linux environment. I have created the keystore in linux environment using jdk 1.6.0.

Now I want a standalone http(s) client to connect to the server. I have downloaded the keystore generated (psaserver.keystore) and certificate (psaserver.cer) to the windows local system. My jdk version in the local system is also 1.6.

But when I try to connect I am getting this error:

I have gone through the queries regarding the same problem. Retried the same by creating the key so many times, but it didn’t work.

Answer 1

Seems like the problem with the mode of ftp transfer. I did it with Binary mode now and its working fine.
