saml2meta Throws Exception When Access Manager or Federation Manager is SSL Enabled

When the Access Manager or Federation Manager server is SSL enabled, saml2meta throws a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception.

WORKAROUND: Edit saml2meta by doing the following:

  1. Remove the ${BOOTCLASSPATHOPTION} option when running the java command for com.sun.identity.saml2.meta.SAML2Meta (line 123).

  2. Add the following properties when running the java command for com.sun.identity.saml2.meta.SAML2Meta (line 123).

    • -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=full path for the key store file

    • -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=JKS where JKS is a Java key store file containing the certificate authority certificates of the SSL certificate for the server's web container.
