Error description

  • Even though Liberty was running without errors and listening on
    the defined ports, it was unresponsive to inbound SSL

    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The server does not issue a message     *
    *                      when the RACF keyring specified in the  *
    *                      keystore element in server.xml cannot   *

    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile server fails
    to process an inbound SSL connection request when there is a
    problem loading the RACF keyring that was specified in the
    keystore element in the server.xml.  There are no messages
    issued by the server indicating that there was a problem with
    the keyring.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code was modified to issue the existing message with
    identifier CWPKI0033E which includes the exception that
    occurred while loading the keyring.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.5.5.1. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page
    for delivery information:
    http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
    

Temporary fix

  • Ensure that the keyring specified in the keystore element in
    server.xml is the desired keyring and that it exists.
