Use Case
When we perform save and test the connection of AD it is failing with a Connection failure error.
Error in debuglogs.
[https-jsse-nio-443-exec-12] ERROR ldap.SaviyntGroovyLdapService - Exception.. try next url
javax.naming.CommunicationException: simple bind failed: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxx [Root exception is javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Path does not chain with any of the trust anchors]
Pre-requisites
AD Connection
Applicable Version(s)
v5.5.x and above
Solution
One of the possible issue is due to the AD application expired certificate. So to resolve this we need to add a new valid certificate to the AD application.
Once a new certificate is added, restart all the services is MANDATORY for the changes to take effect.
