APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

For SSL java client configurations--

When you are not using the file ssl.client.props
(com.ibm.SSL.ConfigURL) and not specifying the
com.ibm.SSL.ConfigURL parameter.  The SSL client properties can
be included in the sas.client.props.

sphere.nd.multiplatform.doc/info/ae/ae/rsec_sslclientpropsfile.h
tml

From the Infocenter:
Tip: Support for SSL properties is still specified in the
sas.client.props and soap.client.props files. However, consider
moving the SSL configurations to the ssl.client.props file,
because this file is the new configuration model for client SSL.

However the configuration does not work if only specified via
sas.client.props and when using initialContext() environment.

From logs:
Exception=com.ibm.websphere.ssl.SSLException: CWPKI0315E: SSL
configuration properties are null.

Local fix

Specify SSL properties using system properties instead.

Failure to read SSL configuration information when SSL
information is set in the sas.client.props file if the file is
passed into the initialContext() envrionment rather then set
on a System property.

Problem conclusion

Read ssl information form the sas.client.props file when the
file is set in the initialContext() environment.
