Chapter 14 Tutorial: Using SSL

Debugging the SSL sample applet

If you have difficulty running the sample:

• View the srv.log file to verify that the listeners are running.
• Check the Java console in your browser for error messages. To view the console, select Communicator | Java Console.
• If the srv.log or Java console indicates an untrusted certificate error, make sure you have loaded the test CA's certificate from Security Manager in the browser. If you use a personal certificate signed by a CA other than the Jaguar test CA, make sure you have installed the signer's certificate (of your personal certificate) in Security Manager.
• Make sure that the listener's Hostname field for all preconfigured listeners and the listener you created for this tutorial are set to the actual name or IP address of the host and not localhost .
