Java调用https服务报错unable to find valid certification path to requested target的解决方法

咱们网站要进行https改造，配置上购买的SSL证书后，浏览器访问正常，可是写了个java代码用httpcomponents调用https rest接口时报错：

网上查了一堆资料，要么说要把网站证书放到某个目录下，要么要改代码，没有我想要的，由于不可能让其余开发者去作这些事情。

后来了解到证书链这回事，才知道如何解决这个问题。有关证书链能够读这里：http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_53ed87c10102vn8b.html

此问题产生的缘由是由于咱们运维配置证书时只使用了签发的证书，java客户端没法找到可信任的上级证书，因此报错。解决方法也很简单，把中级证书、根证书附加到签发证书后面就能够了，具体方法参考这里：https://yq.aliyun.com/articles/26569
