Question

I want to consume a web service in Java and I am using JAX.WS. Everything is working fine until I try to consume a webservice over SSL (https). I have added the certificate of the site to keystore using keytool. Still no success. Anyone has done it before ? The webservice is from a third party payment gateway like paypal-payflo etc… so regular webservice whose certificate comes from Verisign. Any tip would help. It is a SOAP webservice with wsdl.

The error trace:

Exception in thread “main” javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Failed to
access the WSDL at:
xxxxx.xxxxxx.xxx/creditcardWS/CreditCardService/v1?wsdl. It failed
with: Got Connection refused: connect while opening stream from
xxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxx/creditcardWS/CreditCardService/v1?wsdl. at

Does setting your own keystore to javax.net.ssl.trustStore help?

String keystorePath = "local.keystore";
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", keystorePath);

Be sure to check if you can read from that path (current example assumes local.keystore is in classpath.
