Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of Web Services with SSL on Sun    *
    *                 Solaris and HP-UX platforms.                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: On Sun Solaris and HP-UX, if a          *
    *                      message flow containing an HTTPInput    *
    *                      node  configured to use HTTPS is        *
    *                      deployed to a Broker, the               *
    *                      HTTPListener process logs a BIP3135S    *
    *                      error reporting that algorithm          *
    *                      SunX509 is not available for use.       *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    If you deploy a message flow containing an HTTPInput node that
    has been configured to use SSL to a broker on Sun Solaris or
    HP-UX, a BIP3135S  message is logged. This reports that an
    exception occurred whilst starting the servlet engine
    connector because the certificate encoding algorithm SunX509
    is not available.
    On Sun Solaris and HP-UX, the broker lets the certificate
    encoding alogorithm default to SunX509, but on all Message
    Broker V6  platforms, IBM-developed security is shipped with
    the JRE and therefore algorithm IbmX509 is available and
    should be used.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The HTTPListener has been changed to use certificate encoding
    algorithm  IbmX509 on all platforms.
    

Temporary fix
