PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provide...

在执行webservice的过程当中，出现以下异常：

javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: 
PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: 
unable to find valid certification path to requested target

这是缺乏安全证书时出现的异常，解决方案就是将你要访问的webservice的安全认证证书导入到客户端便可。如下是获取安全证书的一种方法

1，写一个程序专门获取安全证书，参考InstallCert.java

2.执行 java InstallCert hostname 好比

java InstallCert 192.168.1.137：8443

会看到以下信息：

java InstallCert ecc.fedora.redhat.com
Loading KeyStore /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.5.0/jre/lib/security/cacerts...
Opening connection to ecc.fedora.redhat.com:443...

Enter certificate to add to trusted keystore or 'q' to quit: [1]
3.输入1，而后直接回车，会在相应的目录下产生一个名为‘jssecacerts’的证书。将证书copy到$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security目录下，或者经过如下方式

System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "D:\\UTA\\DOC_E_Health_XML\\Keystore\\jssecacerts
