vApp import certificates for PX user

Products

• CA Identity Manager
• CA Identity Suite

Issue/Introduction

Environment:

Identity Suite 14.2 (IM/vApp)

Problem:

I'm using Policy Xpress having a "REST Queries" in the "Action Rules"

REST working fine with HTTP but fails using HTTPS with following error message (when testing from UI clicking "TEST" button):

The test has failed to run with following error: "Failed invoking REST operation " which was caused by "sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target;PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target;unable to find valid certification path to requested target".

Problem seems to be related to certificate and endpoint is using a Self Signed Certificate

I need to import this certificate into vApp java cert store, how to do that?

Environment

Release : 14.2

Component : CA IDENTITY SUITE (VIRTUAL APPLIANCE)

Resolution

vApp's default cert store for IM should be accessible to config user and therefore you should be able to import certificates into it just like on any other (non vApp) deployment using keytool
