SSLException: Received fatal alert: illegal_parameter after Java 1.7 upgrade

Question

Tomcat 7 upgrade from tomcat 5 while connecting to LDAP gives error :

main, READ: TLSv1 Alert, length = 2
main, RECV TLSv1 ALERT:  fatal, illegal_parameter
m         


        

Answer 1

Solution to this problem is:

1. Disabling ecliptic curves with command: -Dcom.sun.net.ssl.enableECC=false

2. Disabling server name extension: -Djsse.enableSNIExtension=false

3. Installed unrestricted policy jar files.

This resolved issue and I am able to run application.
