Connecting Confluence with AD using SSL

Dominik Žarković

Hi, 

We are trying to connect Confluence server with Microsoft AD using SSL. But we keep getting this error message. 

nested exception is javax.naming.CommunicationException

Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: No name matching 

How can i fix this ?

Dear @Dominik Žarković,

most probably your SSL certificate is not trusted by the JVM. To fix this you can do following:

• create a new keystore including the public part of the cert of AD (with Oracles keytool) and add the following to the start scripts of Confluence

  • -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/keystore

• or add the certificate to the JVM keystore located at (with the keytool)

  • java/jre/lib/security/cacerts

So long

Thomas
