SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Client; msg=Error
opening socket; java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
The
most likely cause of this refused connection is that it was sent to the default
port, 80, and an HTTP server is not installed or configured.
To verify
this situation, send the message directly to the SOAP port; for example, to
http://hostname:9080.
If the message is sent correctly, there are two ways to resolve the problem:
- Continue specifying port 9080 on SOAP requests.
- If an HTTP server is not installed, install one and the associated plug-in
component.
- If an HTTP server is installed:
- Regenerate the HTTP plug-in configuration in the administrative console
by clicking Environment > Update WebServer Plugin, and restarting the
HTTP server.
- If the problem persists, view the HTTP server access and error logs, as
well as the plugin_install_root/logs/web_server_name/http_plugin.log file
for more information.
javax.security.cert.CertPathBuilderException:
No end-entity certificate matching the selection criteria could be found
This
error usually indicates that new or updated security keys are needed. The
security key files are:
- SOAPclient
- SOAPserver
- sslserver.p12
In an installed application, these files are
located in the: install_dir/installedApps/application_name.ear/soapsec.war/key/ directory.
After replacing these files, you must stop and restart the application.
To
replace these files in a SOAP-enabled application that is not yet installed:
- Expand the application_name.ear file.
- Expand the soapsec.war file.
- Replace the security key files in the key/ directory.
- After you replace these files, install the application and restart the
server.
