Title:
Fresh install with JDK 9 can't use the generated PKCS12 cacerts
keystore file
Status in ca-certificates-java package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I ran into a problem after doing approximately the following on an
install of Ubuntu 17.10:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-9-jdk maven ca-certificates-java
Running "mvn package" on my own project threw this error without
downloading anything:
java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors
parameter must be non-empty
It seems that all TLS connections fail due to missing trust anchors in
Java 9!
After some investigation, I discovered that the JDK's
lib/security/cacerts is a symlink to /etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts,
which is provided by ca-certificates-java package. This file appeared
to be a PKCS12 file with password "changeit" protecting it. I was able
to list its contents using both keytool -list -cacerts and openssl
pkcs12 -in cacerts with that password, confirming that the file
actually did hold the certificates. Regardless, Java 9 was not able to
use the contents of this file for whatever reason.
To workaround the issue, I downgraded to openjdk-8-jdk, did rm
/etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts, then did update-ca-certificates -f, then
upgraded back to openjdk-9-jdk. The old Java 8 -generated JKS file
with empty string as password was usable in the Java 9, permitting mvn
and other things to make TLS connections again.
The problem can be reintroduced by having java 9 installed and doing
rm /etc/ssl/certs/java/cacerts and then update-ca-certificates -f.
