Intellij IDEA - Webservices client from WSDL with certificates

I am somewhat new to SSL / TLS and Java trust / keystores. I am trying to create a client to use a web service from a WSDL file hosted in IIS. This worked fine before the service was configured to receive certificates. Now I get a Wsdl url connection exception .

In an attempt to get around this, I saved a local copy of WSDL via IE (with the corresponding certificates in place using the MMC Certificates snap-in). Then I tried to point IDEA to this place ( file:/C:/projects/wsdl/wsdlname.wsdl ).

This occurs with the following error messages:

 parsing WSDL... [ERROR] sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target unknown location [ERROR] invalid entity name: "Auth" (in namespace: "******") line 0 of unknown location

Note. I have allocated a namespace.

  • Is there a way to configure IntelliJ IDEA to be able to present a valid certificate if I want to use the generation / wizard utility?
  • Is there a potential web service issue that causes even local WSDL import to fail?

Thanks in advance.

This should help if you install the certificate in the JVM, which is used to run IDEA using keytool .
