Getting error when consuming SSL enabled RESTful service (https)

[Anonymous]

Hi All,
When I was trying to consume SSL enabled RESTful service using POST method from Route, ended with following error.
I am using Talend Data Services Platform 6.2.1 (subscription version). Please share your thoughts to get rid of this error.

Hi Saravana,
Are you using tSetKeystore to import the certificate ?

Hi, 
Thanks for your response.
No, I am not using tSetKeystore. In fact, this component is not available within Talend ESB Routes.

Hi,

Have you deployed the route into Talend Runtime container or just running the route within Studio? does the SSLHandshakeException only happen when POST? or happon for any GET/PUT/POST.

I got this exception when running the route within studio. I have found a solution and resolved this issue now. Thanks for all your support.
Basically, I have downloaded SSL certificate (of the server from browser) and installed into Talend JVM (using Java keytool utility). It solved the problem. I will share detailed steps later to benefit others.
