Hi -

The exact java version used with Oxygen: java.runtime.version 1.8.0_202-b08

The two sites with add-ons in my list:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Addons/default/updateSite.xml
https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Addons/community/updateSite.xml

I've disabled "Automatically accept a security certificate"

I'm not getting any questions about certificates now.

I did not reinstall (I may do this later). I did restart; no more complaints.

Please let me know if there's anything else I should consider.

Thanks!

Hello Jean,

"Automatically accept a security certificate, even if invalid" is an option that was specifically made to bypass invalid SSL/TLS certificates and certificates that Java can't validate (usually because Java has no root certificate for the given certificate hierarchy).
It's not really an option that you should keep on in normal circumstances, it's meant for debugging or quickly getting around such a certificate validation issue.

With a clean v23.1 installation we cannot reproduce this with the Oxygen default update site URL:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Addons/default/updateSite.xml

So first we need to know which HTTPS URL is triggering this for you and what is the exact Java version that you are using with Oxygen. The Java version can be found in Help -> About, System properties, java.runtime.version

To test which URL triggers this, clear the "Automatically accept a security certificate" box and use File > Open URL to try and open the URL in question. Try multiple HTTPS URLS. If it triggers only when trying to install add-ons check each URL from the list in Options > Preferences, Add-ons.

So either it's a different URL that triggers this error, or there is something wrong with the distribution of Java (bad lib/security/cacerts) that your Oxygen distribution is using. I am assuming you haven't messed with the Java runtime bundled with Oxygen (in the Oxygen/jre folder). If you did, you should consider reinstalling Oxygen, as something may be wrong with it.

Adrian

The magic of documentation... Your suggestion helped me fix the invalid certificate problem with my install:

All the stuff like java.home c:\program files\oxygen xml editor 23\jre was in order. The suggestion to automatically accept the certificate fixed the issue for me. Not exactly the safest approach but it worked!

I don't have a proxy server or VPN I'm running through (I specifically made sure I wasn't logged into the VPN).

I don't understand how my config. stopped accepting Java certificates from Oxygen's Default and Community add-on sites though. Ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

When does this error appear? Are you trying to open an URL (in which case which one) or to upgrade the Git Client?

What Oxygen version are you running?

Please have a look at Help -> About an the System properties tab. I'm interested in these two properties: java.home and java.runtime.version

You can also try and set the Automatically accept a security certificate [1], even if invalid option and see if the errors go away:

Best regards,

I have a whole list of stuff complaining about Sun security certificates that can't be resolved via proxy to https. I'm not running a proxy server on my end as far as I know though.

I've attached the messages as a text file. Please advise?

Thanks!

Hi,

Just to update the public user's list with the private email exchange which followed, I asked Ray:

What version of Oxygen are you using.

Our Git add-on is compatible with Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer versions 21.1 or newer.

And he answered:

I’m using Oxygen XML Editor 23.1.

I removed the plugin from the extension folder of the com.oxygenxml in the preferences folder then reloaded the plugin through the ‘Install New Add-ons’.

The Git Client appeared and installed OK.

Regards,

Radu

Dear Alin

 

Thank you for your email.

 

Git Client only appears when 'Show only Compatible add-ons' is disabled and is greyed out.

 

I've tried to download the plugin from Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer with the same result.

 

Kind regards

Ray Lancashire
