1. Make sure you have added your Certificate to your trust-store like this:

keytool -import -trustcacerts -keystore {JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/security/cacerts -noprompt -alias -file {CORRECT_PATH}/what_ever.crt

2. If still the problem exists, set the path directly by setting java parameters in your execution command line like this:

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore={JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/security/cacerts
