I've been struggling with this for almost a week and can use some help from the community...
I'm making a call from SalesForce to a JSP on an external web-server (in our control) using the following code:
HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
//Set HTTPRequest params
req.setMethod('POST');
req.setEndpoint('https://somehost/somefile.jsp');
// set the client certificate.
String s_certificate = 'certificate goes here';
req.setClientCertificate(s_certificate,'password');
//Set the HTTPRequest body
String body = 'the body of the message';
req.setBody(body);
Http http = new Http();
try
{
//Execute web service call here
HTTPResponse res = http.send(req);
//Helpful debug messages
System.debug(res.toString());
System.debug('STATUS:'+res.getStatus());
System.debug('STATUS_CODE:'+res.getStatusCode());
}
catch(System.CalloutException e)
{
System.debug('Got exception: ' + e);
}
When I execute this code (either with or without @future), I get the following exception:
System.CalloutException: DER input, Integer tag error
I believe there is something wrong with either the certifate I'm using for req.setClientCertificate(), the certificate on the server, or the server configuration, but I'm sure what is going on exactly.
If somebody has experience making an Apex call over HTTPS, please reply with some overview on how it works, what the setup needs to be, what kind of certificates are needed, how the web-server needs to be configured (e.g. require client authentication?) and if there is anything wrong with the code.
This is becoming an urgent matter so please help!!
I am getting the following error when making a call to a webservice that we host through apex code:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path
building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to
find valid certification path to requested target
I
have done some research and found that it has to do with certificates.
Our certificate is signed by Verisign. I saw that your certificate has
to be added to the keystore. Does it have to be added to the keystore
if we are not using 2 way trust? Also, does my Apex code have to send
the certificate to the webservice somehow or is that not necessary?
public class CallESB{ @Future(callout=true) public static void getRasID(String SSN_nodashes, string id) { rasmussenidentificationservice.ServiceHTTPBehaviour newSSn = new rasmussenidentificationservice.ServiceHTTPBehaviour(); string output = newSSn.GetRasIDBySSN(SSN_nodashes); // String output back to the contact record System.debug('RasID: '+output); if (output!=null) { Contact c=[select rasid__c,id FROM Contact where id=:id]; c.RasId__c=output;
