Environment

API Gateway (Software form factor)

Cause

Incorrect java version was installed in the server. 

 

Resolution

Installing the required Java as per the document and reconfiguring the gateway JVM should resolve this exception.

Note:  The newer java version has deprecated package  com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider (it has been removed in the later version of java).
