Hi,
We're using CAS 4.1.0 and we're having some sporadic issues with our
certs. This is the exception:
Caused by: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path
building failed:

I've read this [1], but in our case we don't use self-signed certs, but
real Geotrust certs.
Our scenario is the following:
1) We have an Nginx which proxies requests back to Tomcat7 (via
proxy_pass). SSL certs are configured here, for two sites, whose SSL
certs are different.
1.1) Our /cas site has a dedicated certificate (cas.whatever.com). This
works quite well so far.
1.2) Our /cas-management site has a wildcard certificate
(*.whatever.com). This one's throwing the exception, but only on one of
our nodes (we have 2 exactly equal with the very same configuration).
2) We imported both public keys into the system Keystore located in
/etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts with Keytool (Ubuntu 14.04).
3) Tomcat is using its own Keystore (/etc/tomcat7/keystore.jks)
My questions are:
a) Should this configuration be enough to avoid the exception above? If
yes, why are we getting an exception on point 1.2?
b) Is point 3 relevant?
c) In case this gets painful, is there a non-intrusive way to disable
SSL checking in the CAS-Management webapp?
Thanks.
Nicolás
