[jira] Commented: (NUTCH-636) Http client plug-in https doesn't work on IBM JRE

["Andrzej Bialecki (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-636?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12639149#action_12639149 ] 

Andrzej Bialecki  commented on NUTCH-636:
-----------------------------------------

Actually, under Sun JVM the following line works, too:

TrustManagerFactory factory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance("X509");

Can you test this with IBM runtime?

> I want to crawl my site, which is https, using the protocol-httpclient plug-in. However it throws exceptions each request, something about an unknown algorithm "SunX509" for SSL. I don't recall the exact message. I don't have permission to change the JRE on our production server.
> I had to modify DummyX509TrustManager to hardcode the string to "IbmX509" instead of "SunX509" in order to work. It would be better if the plug-in could automatically figure out which one to use. At the very least, try the major ones until you don't hit any exception and take that one.
