This failure can occur when the keystore and truststore properties are not set properly.
Set the following properties on the JVM:
javax.net.ssl.keyStore= <keystore-file-path\>;javax.net.ssl.trustStore=<truststore-file-path\>
To use the application client, set the environment variable VMARGS to the following value:
-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=
${admin.domain.dir}/${admin.domain}/config/keystore.jks
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=
${admin.domain.dir}/${admin.domain}/config/cacerts.jks
