ava.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Certificate chaining error Test connection FAILED!

Hi All,
The Integration of Jenkins is broken after upgrade from CLM 5.0.2 to CLM
6.0.2.  Testing the connection from build engine of RTC eclipse client
gives the following error.

 Connecting to: 
https://<Jenkins Host?:8889/
Exception: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: com.ibm.jsse2.util.n:
PKIX path building failed: java.security.cert.CertPathBuilderException:
PKIXCertPathBuilderImpl could not build a valid CertPath.; internal
cause is:
 java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: The certificate issued
by CN=*****, OU=****, O=CAs, DC=<companyname>, DC=com is not trusted;
internal cause is:
 java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Certificate chaining
error Test connection FAILED!

We imported the certificate chain into the WebSphere trust store, but
that did not solve the problem.

Hi Daniel,

I would double check the trust store in Websphere and make sure it is the right one.

We found the proper trust store buried in the WebSphere JRE.
