Hello,

Sorry my bad english.
I set up an Application Server SJSAS8.3 to authenticate with SSL LDAP (Sun Java Directory Manager 6.3.
In the beginning was getting the following message when the user would do authentication.

[#|2009-09-05T00:03:15.927-0300|WARNING|sun-appserver-ee8.2|javax.enterprise.system.container.web|_ThreadID=
12;|Web login failed: Login failed: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: javax.naming.CommunicationExce
ption: simple bind failed: machine:1489 [Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.secu
rity.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuil
derException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target]|#]


To resolve the problem asked for a certificate in PKCS12 format for import into ldap and even in jks format for the Application Server.
Now I get the following message.

[#|2009-09-06T02:02:10.766-0300|WARNING|sun-appserver-ee8.2|javax.enterprise.system.container.web|_ThreadID=
12;|Web login failed: Login failed: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: javax.naming.InvalidNameExcept
ion: [LDAP: error code 34 - Invalid DN]|#]

I have not had time to resolve this problem, if I can resolve this problem I inform.

Thank you,

Isaac
