SSL client certificate in Maven

Question

I use the \"maven-jaxb22-plugin\" to generate classes so I can call a web service written in .Net. Usually it works fine but this time, I can only access the WSDL using a cl

Answer 1

You could use maven propety configuration to setup Java System properties. Be careful to set "keyStore" not "trustStore".

Also, if you are using a certificate that it's not from a valid CA you have to configure maven.wagon.http.ssl.insecure=true and maven.wagon.http.ssl.allowall=true

In your case use:

..
<executions>
    <execution>
        <goals>
            <goal>generate</goal>
        </goals>
        <configuration>
            <properties>
                <property>
                    <name>javax.net.ssl.keyStore</name>
                    <value>yourks.jks</value>
                </property>
                <property>
                    <name>javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType</name>
                    <value>jks</value>
                </property>
                <property>
                    <name>javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword</name>
                    <value>changeit</value>
                </property>
                <property>
                    <name>maven.wagon.http.ssl.insecure</name>
                    <value>true</value>
                </property>
                <property>
                    <name>maven.wagon.http.ssl.allowall</name>
                    <value>true</value>
                </property>
            </properties>
        </configuration>
    </execution>
</executions>

You could use the Maven properties plugin or use a JVM property to provide the trust store location.

In your POM build/plugins section, add a new plugin entry, where the keystore would be YourKeyStore.jks for this example:

..
<plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>properties-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.0-alpha-2</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <goals>
              <goal>set-system-properties</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <properties>
                <property>
                  <name>javax.net.ssl.trustStore</name>
                  <value>${basedir}/src/test/jmeter/jmeterTrustedKeystore.jks</value>
                </property>
                <property>
                  <name>javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword</name>
                  <value>changeit</value>
                </property>
              </properties>
            </configuration>
          </execution>
        </executions>
</plugin>
