java https client throws “Received fatal alert: handshake_failure” with JDK 1.5 but works on JDK1.6

Question

I am runnning a simple java httpsclient. It gives handshake_failure error when compiled and running with jdk1.5 . But works fine with jdk1.6 . I cannot upgrade my code to jdk 1.6. Is there anyway I can get this working with jdk 1.5

Answer 1

Maybe each JDK is using a different keystore, so one keystore contains a key allowing the connection, and the other does not.

See Received fatal alert: handshake_failure through SSLHandshakeException for details of how to enable SSL connection.

Answer 2

补充第一个答案，尝试使用Java keytool将证书添加到jdk1.5上的密钥库中
