Software caused connection abort: recv failed

[Janwillem Borleffs]

Hello everybody,

Using the following snippet:

<snippet>

System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore",
"/var/keystores/somehost.keystore");

// Create a trust manager that does not validate certificate chains
X509TrustManager trustMgr = new X509TrustManager() {
public void checkClientTrusted(
X509Certificate[] arg0, String arg1)
throws CertificateException {
}

public void checkServerTrusted(
X509Certificate[] arg0,String arg1)
throws CertificateException {
}

public X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
return new X509Certificate[0];
}
};

SSLContext context = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
context.init(null, new TrustManager[] { trustMgr }, null);
HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(cont ext.getSocketFactory());

URL url = new URL("https://somehost/");
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
con.getInputStream();

</snippet>
I keep getting the following error:

java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: recv failed

I googled for the cause, only to find that many people have the same problem
with nothing conclusive.

Anyone knows what's causing the problem?
TIA,
JW

The private key was missing, so the certificate chain was sent without any
authentication. After defining the pkcs12 file as the
javax.net.ssl.keyStore, the certificates where applied along with the
private key...
