I'm trying to connect to all the links in a particular webpage and get the response to see if the link is broken.
Some of the links are SSL that too self-certified.
So, I've followed the procedure of adding the certificate to trust store. After that it worked fine, when I tested the same in Eclipse(it returned OK/200).
But, when I build and run the project using ANT in command line, the same exception appears.
And it is weird that it doesn't happen when I build using the same xml through Eclipse; it simply works!
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
As per my previous comments Java installs a JRE alongside the JDK which in turn also has a JRE installed. Thus if you are not sure which one is used you can try to add the certificate into jre\lib\security\cacerts and jdk1.x.0_xx\jre\lib\security\cacerts.

I am using Eclipse Neon 6.4.3 and i am trying to deploy my project to App Engine using the Google Cloud Platform plugin for Eclipse. https://cloud.google.com/eclipse/docs/quickstart
Until the 1st of April i could deploy projects using this plugin. But after that date, i get the following error:
Failed to retrieve projects; An error occurred while retrieving projects:javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuiderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target.
Reason: Failed to retrieve projects.
Details: Failed to retrieve projects
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed:
sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to
find valid certification path to requested target
After I press OK, I get the same message again. Then I get the "Deploy to App Engine Standard" menu with my account but my project list is blank.
I am working in a company that uses proxies and it's doing a SSL Inspection. I imported these 2 certificates used for SSL Inspection in my Eclipse cacerts file but i get the same error. These two certificates are issued by our internal certificate authority.
I wanted to add this as a comment, but still don't have enough points:
Are you using maven or appcfg? Have you tried using appcfg with --proxy argument?
From Deploying a Java app documentation:
If you are using an HTTP proxy, include the --proxy argument to tell appcfg its address. If you use a different proxy for HTTPS, then also include the --proxy_https argument.
The current certificate for the URL used to retrieve the projects https://cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/ was issued on April 5 2017, this may be the reason for the error. If you open that url and check the certificate you can verify whether it's signing CA is in the truststore you use, or you need to add either the CA or the certificate itself to your truststore.

I've tried all of the solutions I can find, all of which appear to be collectively posted on this page: What to do about Eclipse's "No repository found containing: ..." error messages? but nothing appears to change.
My computer is running MacOS Sierra and my version of Eclipse is Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers Version: Neon.2 Release (4.6.2)
Any other recommendations for what I could try next?
Thank you!
In December 2016, Sourceforge introduced automatic forwarding to HTTPS servers (even if the URLs are entered with HTTP) which used "Let's Encrypt" certificates. Older Java versions (below Java 8u101 and Java 7u111) did not recognize "Let's Encrypt"'s root certificate and this results in said error message (no "valid certification path").
But: As of now, Sourceforge seems to have switched to "GeoTrust" certificates, which should pose no problem, even for older Java versions.
So the first thing to check: Try to install Saros again.
Do you still get certificate errors?
If the problem persists from some reason, you have two options:
Easy way: Install Saros not from the update site, but as a dropin instead of using the update site. There is a How-To on the project website: Instructions for installing Saros as a dropin
Uncertain way: You could try to find out which certificate authority (CA) issued the certificates used by the HTTPS server you get forwarded to. (E.g. type one of the HTTP URLs from the error message into your web browser, wait until you get redirected to an HTTPS URL, and check the certificate information -- usually a green lock icon next to your address bar.) If you have the CA's name, there might be website explaining how to add its root certificate to your Java setup (similar to this one, which gives some hints for the "Let's Encrypt" case).
Update (2017-03-31):
I heard from others that the problem with Sourceforge still persists for them.
As an alternative to installing Saros as a dropin (option 1 above), you can also use our secondary Eclipse update site which is hosted on Heroku: https://get-saros.herokuapp.com/eclipse
The issue is something tricky. I tried to connect my war file to a Active Directory via LDAPS. While running with Debug Mode from IntelliJ IDEA, the code is working perfectly fine.
When I Install the war files in same or different machine, am facing this error.
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
The certificates are self-signed. I have added the CA.crt in truststore.jks, LDAP.cer in cacerts. I also tried adding in the `jssecacerts', but same result.
Note: Am using Apache Shiro framework.
How to avoid this error? Why it is not coming in the debug mode?
This is not a Shiro problem. It is a problem with your certificates. I suspect your IDE may be using a different Java install than where your deployed WAR is executing from.
This exception has been handled previously How to ignore PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException?.
Also, I found this article useful PKIX path building failed: SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target..
Definitely its problem with certificates. Thing that worked for me was, placing required certificate in C -> program files-> java -> jre -> lib -> security location. After pasting cerificate at this loaction, build successful
If you are using VPN or a forward proxy, you just need to add the certificate of your proxy to Java cacerts.
check this answer on how to do that. https://stackoverflow.com/a/9619478/4144572
I am facing an issue while trying to run a RestClient through Java.
I am using Apache HttpClient for building a rest client
I have added the required certificates in the jdk cacerts file and also checked that they are present there.
Now when I am running my code from eclipse than the handshake is happening correctly without any error and I am able to send a POST request.
Now when I create a runnable jar file from eclipse with all jars packaged in it than while running I am encountering the error
Error Occurred: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
Can you all please help me in resolving this.
Run your application with the following option:
java -Djava.security.debug=all ...
This will turn debugging on.
I'm assuming that your are running the jar file as a standalone application. If that is the case, the cacerts maybe different.
I am trying to connect to a mail server and read my inbox. My code works for gmail but does not seem to work with my exchange server because of the error:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed:
sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException:
unable to find valid certification path to requested target
I have tried the following as per my research:
1. downloaded the InstallCert.java and ran the folllowing command:
java InstallCert mail.simbatech.biz:993
and imported the one certificate that came in, I afterwards copied the jssecacerts file to jre/lib/security directory of my java Installation but the same error still persists. Is there Any other way to do this?
It sounds like you're doing the right things, but apparently your application is not using the certificate file you created. Where is your application running? If it's running in an application server, the server may be overriding the trust store configuration and may thus be ignoring your jssecacerts file. Try enabling additional debug output as described in the JavaMail FAQ.
