Why Getting SunCertPathBuilderException at Starting of Content in Spring Tool Suite 4? - networking

I'm working in a company network and was trying to import a "Spring Getting Started Content" (File -> New -> Spring Getting Started Content). The wizard open, but in both categories (Getting Started Guide, Reference App) is the error "SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target" shown.
I already included our company certificate and the spring.io - certificate to my cacerts of my used jre. Additional i set the proxy settings for our company proxy server (Window -> Preferences -> Network -> Manual).
If I try to add a Cloud Foundry Target, I also need to authentificate. The same error occours. But here I have the option to "Skip SSL Validation" and then it works.
I expect it to work after I included the spring.io certificate, but maybe the download request ist against something else?
I also added a github cert.

Configure Artifactory to proxy Remote Repository via Proxy

First I created a proxy configuration in Artifactory with required host IP and port then I configured for the maven remote repo:
http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/
I selected "maven" for package type, "maven-2-default" for repository layout and remote layout mapping, selected the proxy key (Artifactory identifier) under the network tab. But clicking "test" yields:
Connection failed: Error 403: Forbidden (on a popup window, no logging)
That is, no information appears in the Artifactory logs when using the "test" connection button; however, the 403 connection failed error always pops up with the button.
On a browser, an error is logged when navigating to:
https://{private name}/artifactory/list/{artifactory name for proxy repo}/
The error is:
{date time} [http-nio-8085-exec-5] [INFO ] (o.a.r.RemoteRepoBase:940) - Error listing remote resources http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/: Unable to retrieve http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/: 403: Forbidden (remote response: 403: Forbidden)
The server.xml file for Catalina shows that a connection is setup with port 8085, redirect 8443, UTF-8, and as shown above the default protocol is http nio.
Performing the following operation from the Artifactory server works fine and returns the html page, index of maven 2.
curl -x {proxy IP}:{proxy port} http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/
Without Artifactory, maven command-line, lifecycle operations work using the proxy. The proxy and an active profile configuration with the repository url info were added to the maven settings.xml file.
LDAP settings in Artifactory appear to be working fine. The test button for the ldap settings yield "Successfully connected and authenticated the test user."
The permissions settings are set to allow manage for the account connected via the Artifactory UI.
There are other, similar questions but a relevant solution to this problem is not discussed:

OpenAM J2EE agent installation bringing down tomcat

OpenAM version -12 , Agent version 3.5 and 3.3 , tomcat version 7
I have tried to follow the link https://forums.alfresco.com/forum/installation-upgrades-configuration-integration/authentication-ldap-sso/sso-openam-06052012 to set up my J2EE Agent. Let me paste the steps after asking the question(see at the end)
but I am getting the error as asked below
Not able to configure J2ee agent on adding my customized data store for users
I have tried to use 3.5 version installed and uninstalled multiple times and tried previous version.
There is a nice discussion on this topic at http://database.developer-works.com/article/16009911/%22Cannot+obtain+Application+SSO+token%22+error
but it did not help me much.
I am using LDAP so I have used LDAP realm and subjects are showing up ok. Also I am observing that the policy tab has changed quite a bit from how it is described in the Blogs.
Now with the roadblock I am not sure how to proceed as the error is not giving me any clue what to do. I even added the file named AMConfig.properties in the classpath with username and password of the agent and tried the username and password of the OpenAM admin too as suggested in the discussion mentioned. but that too did not help.
The issue is the Tomcat now is not starting and giving error that AMConfig.properties properties are needed
I know the OpenAM Realm setup is good as I am able to login via this realm to another application (Liferay) where I just have to give the URL for use OpenAM integration. but after uninstallation of the agent the tomcat starts without any error and i am able to login to the application
-------------------Step copied from 1st link(modified)--------------------------
1. Configure your OpenAM agent (tried both 3.5 and 3.3 version on tomcat 7)
a. Log into OpenAM as the admin user and navigate to "Access Control -> (Your Realm) - where in my case LDAP Realm (other application using it without issue)
b. Select Policies -> New Policy
c. Enter Share as the policy name and then create 2 new URL Policy agent rules
d. 1st Resource Name = http://:/share/*
e. 2nd Resource Name = http://alfresco.domain.com:8080/share/*?*
f. Add a subjects - already part of LDAP Realm
g. Now select Agents -> J2EE - > (your J2EE agent)
h. Select the Application tab
i. Login Processing -> Login Form URI - add /share/page/dologin
j. Logout Processing -> Application Logout URL - add Map Key = share - Corresponding Map Value = /share/page/dologout
k. Not Enforced URI Processing - Add 2 entries - /share and /share/
l. Profile Attributes Processing - Select HTTP_HEADER and add Map Key = uid - Corresponding Map Value = SsoUserHeader (This is what I called my header in the alfresco-global.properties file - see below)
Auth chain
authentication.chain=external1:external,alfrescoNtlm1:alfrescoNtlm
alfresco.authentication.allowGuestLogin=true
SSO settings
external.authentication.enabled=true
external.authentication.defaultAdministratorUserNames=admin
external.authentication.proxyUserName=
external.authentication.proxyHeader=SsoUserHeader
NOTE- It does not seem possible to configure SSO where the Guest login has been disabled. There are webscripts used on the Alfresco repository that need guest login.
That concludes the setup for Alfresco and OpenAM
For Share you need to have the following section uncommented in your share-config-custom.xml
alfresco/web-extension/alfresco-system.p12
pkcs12
alfresco-system
alfrescoCookie
Alfresco Connector
Connects to an Alfresco instance using cookie-based authentication

alfrescoHeader
http://alfreso.domain.com:8080/alfresco/wcs
user

Notice I am not using the SSL cert and in my alfrescoHeader connector I have used SsoUserHeader (as setup in OpenAM) and the endpoint uses the alfrescoHeader connector
Now you need to add the OpenAM filter to the Share web.xml file
Add the following filter just before the Share SSO authentication support filter
Agent
com.sun.identity.agents.filter.AmAgentFilter
Add the following filter mapping to the filter-mapping section
Agent
REQUEST
INCLUDE
FORWARD
ERROR
----- End ----------
The error message is a bit misleading: the Cannot obtain application SSO token in general means that the agent was unable to authenticate itself. When you install the agent, the agent asks for a profile name and a password file, those values need to correspond to the agent profile configured within OpenAM.
To test if you can authenticate as the user, you could simply try to authenticate as the agent by making the following request:
curl -d "username=profilename&password=password&uri=realm=/%26module=Application" http://aldaris.sch.bme.hu:8080/openam/identity/authenticate
In the above command the realm value needs to be the same as the value for the "com.sun.identity.agents.config.organization.name" property defined in OpenSSOAgentBootstrap.properties (under the agent's install directory).
Having bad username/password combination is only one of the possible root causes for this exception though. It is also possible that during startup the agent was unable to connect to OpenAM to authenticate itself. In those cases the problem could be:
network error, firewall issues preventing the agent from contacting OpenAM
SSL trust issues: agent's JVM does not trust the certificate of OpenAM's container (only problem if you've installed the agent by providing OpenAM's HTTPS URL and the certificate is self-signed or just simply not trusted by the JVM)

IIS 7 Error "A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated." when using https

I am trying to create Client Certificates Authentication for my asp.net Website.
In order to create client certificates, I need to create a Certificate Authority first:
makecert.exe -r -n “CN=My Personal CA” -pe -sv MyPersonalCA.pvk -a
sha1 -len 2048 -b 01/01/2013 -e 01/01/2023 -cy authority
MyPersonalCA.cer
Then, I have to import it to IIS 7, but since it accepts the .pfx format, i convert it first
pvk2pfx.exe -pvk MyPersonalCA.pvk -spc MyPersonalCA.cer -pfx MyPersonalCA.pfx
After importing MyPersonalCA.pfx, I try to add the https site binding to my Web Site and choose the above as SSL Certificate, but I get the following error:
Any suggestions?
I ran across this same issue, but fixed it a different way. I believe the account I was using changed from the time I initially attempted to set up the certificate to the time where I returned to finish the work, thus creating the issue. What the issue is, I don't know, but I suspect it has to do with some sort of hash from the current user and that is inconsistent in some scenarios as the user is modified or recreated, etc.
To fix it, I ripped out of both IIS and the Certificates snap-in (for Current User and Local Computer) all references of the certificate in question:
Next, I imported the *.pfx file into the certs snap-in in MMC, placing it in the Local Computer\Personal node:
Right-click the Certificates node under Personal (under Local Computer as the root)
All Tasks -> Import
Go through the Wizard to import your *.pfx
From that point, I was able to return to IIS and find it in the Server Certificates. Finally, I went to my site, edited the bindings and selected the correct certificate. It worked because the user was consistent throughout the process.
To the point mentioned in another answer, you shouldn't have to resort to marking it as exportable as that's a major security issue. You're effectively allowing anyone who can get to the box with a similar set of permissions to take your cert with them and import it anywhere else. Obviously that's not optimal.
Security warning: what the checkbox really means is that the certificate can be read by users that shouldn't be able to read it. Such as the user running the IIS worker process. In production use the other answer instead.
Happened to me too, and was fixed by ensuring that "Allow this certificate to be exported" is checked when you import it:
(thanks to this post!)
This must be some kind of IIS bug, but I found the solution.
1- Export MyPersonalCA.pfx from IIS.
2- Convert it to .pem:
openssl pkcs12 -in MyPersonalCA.pfx -out MyPersonalCA.pem -nodes
3- Convert it back to .pfx:
openssl pkcs12 -export -in MyPersonalCA.pem -inkey MyPersonalCA.pem -out MyPersonalCA.pfx
4- Import it back to IIS.
We had the same issue due to incorrectly importing the certificate into the Current User Personal certificate store. Removing it from the Current User Personal store and importing it into the Local Machine Personal certificate store solved the problem.
Nobody probably cares about this anymore, but I just faced this issue with my IIS 7 website binding. The way I fixed it was going to the Certificate Authority and finding the certificate issued to the server with the issue. I verified the user account that requested the certificate. I Then logged into the IIS server using RDP with that account. I was able to rebind the https protocol using that account only. No exports, reissuing, or extension changing hacks were needed.
Instead of importing the cert from IIS, do it from MMC.
Then goto IIS for binding.
In our case this problem occurred because we have installed the certificate in a Virtual Machine and made an image of it for further use.
When creating another VM from the image previously created the certificate sends the message.
To avoid this be sure to install the certificate on every new VM installed.
According to the MSDN blog post, this can happen when the current user account doesn't have permission to access the private key file which is under the folder "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys". Apparently this can be resolved by granting the user account / user group Full Access permission to the above folder.
I've come across the same issue, and was able to resolve it by simply re-importing the .pfx file with the Allow this certificate ti be exported checkbox selected.
However, this method imposes a security risk - as any user who has
access to your IIS server will be able to export your certificate with
the private key.
In my case, only I have access to my IIS server - therefore it was not a huge risk.
I got this error due to wrong openssl command-line during export PKCS #12 certificate. -certfile key was wrong. I exported certificate again and it was imported successfully.
We found another cause for this. If you are scripting the certificate install using PowerShell and used the Import-PfxCertificate command. This will import the certificate. However, the certificate imported cannot be bound to a website in IIS with the same error as this question mentions. You can list certificates using this command and see why:
certutil -store My
This lists the certificates in your Personal store and you will see this property:
Provider = Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider
This storage provider is a newer CNG provider and is not supported by IIS or .NET. You cannot access the key. Therefore you should use certutil.exe to install certificates in your scripts. Importing using the Certificate Manager MMC snap-in or IIS also works but for scripting, use certutil as follows:
certutil -f -p password -importpfx My .\cert.pfx NoExport

Guys after trying almost every single solution to no avail i ended up finding my solution to '“A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.” when using https" below
Verify your pfx cert is healthy with correct private key
Run certutil and locate the certs 'unique Container name' - i used certutil -v -store my
3.Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys and locate the system file that corresponds to your Container name found above
Check permissions and ensure 'system' has full control to file.
Once applied i then checked IIS and was able to apply to https without error
I had the same issue. Solved by removing the certificate from de personal store (somebody put in it) and from the webhosting. All done through the IIS manager. Then I added again to the webhosting store (with everything checked) and I can use HTTPS again...
In my case it was because the World Wide Publishing Service user didn't have permissions to the certificate. After installing the certificate, access the certificates module in MMC and right-click the certificate with the issue. Select "Manage Private Keys..." from the "All Tasks" menu and add the above user. This was SYSTEM user in my case.
I was getting a this error when trying to bind localhost pfx cert for my development machine.
Before i tried any of this above, tried something simpler first.
Closed any localhost dev site i had openned.
Stopped my IIS server and closed the manager
run the manager as Admin
Added all my https bindings, no errors or issues this time.
restarted iis
Everything seems to work after that.
I was getting same error whilst binding the certificate, but fixed after deleting the certificate and importing again through mmc console.
In my case, it has been fixed by using certutil -repairstore command. I was getting following error, when trying to add certificate to Web Binding on IIS using powershell:
A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.
I fixed it by running:
certutil.exe -repairstore $CertificateStoreName $CertThumbPrint
where CertificateStoreName is store name, and CertThumbPrint is the thumbprint of imported certificate.
I recieved this error message when trying to use the following powershell command:
(Get-WebBinding -Port 443 -Name
"WebsiteName").AddSslCertificate("<CertificateThumbprint>", "My")
The solution for me was to go into certificate manager and give IIS_IUSRS user permission to see the certificate.
These are the steps I followed:
Move the certificate into [Personal > Certificates]
Right click [All Tasks > Manage Private Keys]
Add the IIS_IUSRS user (which is located on the local computer not in your domain if you're attached to one)
Give read permission
I managed to fix this problem by importing the SSL certificate PFX file using Windows Certificate Manager.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/view-or-manage-your-certificates
I just had this issue today and feel compelled to post my solution in the hope that you will lose less hair than I've just done.
After trying the solutions above, we had to re-issue the SSL certificate from the SSL provider (RapidSSL issuing as a reseller for GeoTrust).
There was no cost with this process, just the five minute wait while the confirmation emails (admin#) arrived, and we gained access again.
Once we had the response, we used IIS > Server Certificates to install it. We did not need the MMC snap-in.
https://knowledge.rapidssl.com/support/ssl-certificate-support/index?page=content&id=SO5757
We kept a remote desktop window to the server open throughout, to avoid any issues with differing login accounts/sessions, etc. I do believe it is an IIS bug as another expert believes, as we only have one RDC account. What is most infuriating is that the very same certificate has been working perfectly for two months before suddenly "breaking".
In my case I imported a newer version of a certificate (PFX for IIS) from StartSSL just recently and forgot to remove the old one, which somehow caused this error (now two certs sort of the same). I removed both of them, imported the proper one, and now it works.
I was able to fix this problem by removing the then importing it by double clicking the certificate.
For me, the fix was to delete the cert from IIS and re-import it, but into the "personal" certificate store instead of "web hosting"
According to the below, this is fine, at least for my own circumstances.
What's the difference between the Personal and Web Hosting certificate store?
Also, should it make any difference, I imported the certificate via the wizard after double clicking on it on the local machine, instead of via the IIS import method. After this the certificate was available in IIS automatically.
Here's what worked for me:
Step 1: Open up a Run window and type "mmc"
Step 2: Click File > Add/Remove Snap In
Step 3: Add > Certificates, Click OK
Step 4: Choose "Computer Account", then "Local Computer" and proceed.
Step 5: Hit OK
Step 6: Right click the Certificates folder on: Console Root > Certificates (Local Computer) > Personal > Certificates
Step 7: Select All Tasks > Import (Please note that the "Local Machine" is selected on the next window)
Step 8: Browse your .pfx file
Step 9: Then go to the IIS and create https binding
Try :
Go into IIS and delete "VSTS Dev Router" web site and "VSTS Dev Router Pool" application pool.
Run “certlm.msc” and open Personal/Certificates
Delete any cert named “*.vsts.me” and "vsts.me"
Re-deploy

Online Certification Authority, cannot Select.

I am trying to create a domain server and when I reach to specify the online certification Authority, the select button is grayed out.I wish to select the same computer as its the certification authority.Any help is appreciated.
My AD CS was running fine but my IIS server just wouldn't let me select it. To doublecheck that my Certificate Authority server is up I run certutil.exe from CMD and I could see my CA server up and running.
I fixed it in the most canon Windows troubleshooting way. IIS restart.
Refer to this page:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserversecurity/thread/e3e43894-30d5-4064-93d1-96d46ef3de14/
The answer from that thread:
note that you can enroll certificates from IIS only from default V1 WebServer template. This template must be added to your issuing CA server.
I had same problem and the answer "V1 WebServer template. This template must be added to your issuing CA server." did not resolve it.
But, after I ran the following in command prompt:
certreq -submit -attrib “CertificateTemplate:WebServer” request.req
my request was processes and I was issued my certificate.
In addition, I got Select button is worked fine.
Another way to resolve this problem, from here: https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/27758425/Windows-2008R2-IIS-7-Domain-Certficate-problem-select-button-is-greyed-out.html
You could try enrolling the certificate through the certificates MMC
snap-in instead and see if you have better luck:
Start -> Run -> type 'mmc' -> Press enter
(MMC console should open)
File -> Add/Remove Snap-in -> Select 'Certificates' -> Add -> Computer
Account -> Local Computer -> Click OK out of the Add/Remove Snap-ins
window.
Expand certificates -> Expand Personal -> Right click in an empty
space in the main pane -> All tasks -> Request new certificate.
You should be able to run through that wizard and enroll based on your
CA enrollment policies. Any certs that you enroll here and are
applicable for securing websites will appear in IIS.
A couple more checks for those facing this issue:
Use a domain user and not a local user
Check if your CA is an enterprise CA

Certificate validation failed

Actors
-Asp.net site - Client
-Wcf services - Server
Both applications runs on IIS-7.
I want to make integration test between the two applications. The client access the Server through 'https'.
I have created a certificate and assigned it to the server. I also added the certificate to the 'Trusted Root Certification Authorities' to be considered a valid certificate. When I 'hit' the server's services through my browser (IE, chrome...) the certificate appears to be valid. But when my client application tries to access the server then I get the following error:
Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel with authority **** --->
The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.
Is there any way to skip the validation procedure or to make the certificate valid for my client application?
Just to know:
1. I cannot purchase a certificate because I will only use it for testing purposes.
2. I cannot make any changes on any of the application's code (server-client)
I finally managed to figured it out.
The problem was a previous (expired) certificate with the same name that was already added to the 'Trusted Root Certification Authorities'. Every time I was installing my new certificate through the 'Certificate Import Wizard' (or through MMC) the wizard informed me that it was successfully added. However, it was keeping the instance of the previous certificate without overwriting it.
Modify the validation callback to always return true:
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += (sender, certificate, chain, policyErrors) => true;
Or does that violate the 'no changes to code' condition?
How did you install the certificate into your trusted root store?
If you went through a browser to do it, most likely you only added it to the current user. Try adding it through the MMC snap-in for the Local Computer Account instead; this is where we install our self-signed IIS Express certificates and WCF seems happy with them.
