java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: TrustManagerFactory SunX509 implementation not found

i just updated to restlet rc6 from previously rc5. The android app does a simple https call to an externel url.

In rc5 everything worked find, in rc6 i now get the following error:

08-30 10:03:39.185: WARN/System.err(15077): Error while handling an HTTP client call

08-30 10:03:39.195: WARN/System.err(15077): ... 21 more

can anyone tell me what has changed in rc6 so that it is not working anymore?

the release notes for rc6 say:

The support for HTTPS has been significantly completed and fixed in all connectors for :

cipher suites restriction
SSL/TLS protocol version restriction
client certificate request & requirement setting

unfortunately i didn´t find any hints in the official docs what to change in my code in order to get it working again.

thanx, thilo

The silly bunnies included the following in the DefaultSslContextFactory.createSslContext(..) method for rc6 apparently:

setKeyManagerAlgorithm(helperParameters.getFirstValue(
            "keyManagerAlgorithm", true, System.getProperty(
                    "ssl.KeyManagerFactory.algorithm", "SunX509")));

I.e. they hardcoded SunX509 which is proprietary to the Sun JDK - a pretty bad idea overall. This was fixed in the commit 025d356d9fc3620ba9ed613fed32f1a5668f4f70, 17 days ago.

If you need it to work now you could try downloading and building the libraries yourself of course.
