Issue/Introduction:

After enabling SSL on 7980 port, the arrfclnt used for cache refresh can't communicate on port 7980 any more. There is not option for ssl communication. Here is the error. $. /opt/CA/arcot/sbin/arrfenv $ /opt/CA/arcot/sbin/arrfclient cr p1ehowld358 7980 * * * Processing cr p1ehowld358 7980 * * * Initiated the refresh operation with TCP. Refresh operation failed. Error -1 fault: SOAP-ENV:Client [no subcode] "End of file or no input: " Detail: [no detail]

Environment:

8.1 and onwards.

Resolution:

The configuration to support SSL should be enabled in arrfclient.ini at ARCOT_HOME/conf as below.

[arcot/riskfort/arrfclient/certs]
Transport = SSL
ClientKey =
ServerCACert =

Once this is enabled the refresh on SSL works fine.
