Error description

  • Environment
    B2BAC 1.0.0.5
    
    Earlier, this issue was related to the slow loading of the
    global truststore
    and the workaround was to select the relevant certificate
    directly instead.
    This was working for a while but now the problem has resurfaced
    again.
    Based on the operational log, it is observed that, there is a
    timeout when loading the keystore during negotiating the SSL
    protocol.
    This resulted in HTTP timeout on the trading partner side
    (server side) as the handshake takes too long (> 120 secs) time.
    

Local fix

  • STRRTC - 40958
    DW / DW
    Circumvention: None
    

Problem summary

  • Users Affected:
    Department of Human Services
    
    Problem Description:
    SSL connection fails as it takes more than 2
    mins which causes timeout and hence partner drops the
    connection. The End of Stream error occurs in B2BAC.
    
    Platforms Affected:
    ALL
    

Problem conclusion

  • Resolution Summary:
    Each certificate fetch request and response is logged in logging
    file as an xml. JAXB is used for converting object to xml. JAXB
    initialization is taking time. AS a fix avoided JAXB
    initialization on each certificate fetch.
