If you create a connection profile to the SAP UDDI registry, you may encounter errors while browsing the SAP UDDI registry. To eliminate the errors, you must download the appropriate public security certificate into the cacerts file of the JRE. You only need to do this once for each workstation. You can do this before or after you create a connection profile for the SAP UDDI registry. The result of this process is the ability to browse the SAP UDDI registry without receiving an error message.
To configure your workstation to access the SAP UDDI registry without errors:
In Internet Explorer, open the URL http://uddi.sap.com/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tc~uddi~webui~wdp/UDDIWebUI.
Attempt to connect to the Publish API SOAP URL at https://uddi.sap.com/uddi/api/inquiry/. You will be prompted by a Security Alert dialog indicating that the Security Certificate is not yet valid. Select View Certificate.
The Certificate dialog appears.
Click the Details tab.
From the Show menu, select <All>.
Click Copy to File.
The Certificate Export Wizard appears.
Click Next.
The Export File Format page appears.
Select DER encoded binary X.509 (.CER) (the default), then click Next.
The File to Export page appears.
Choose a file location and name, for example, c:\SAPCert.cer, then click Next.
The Completing the Certificate Export Wizard page appears.
Click Finish. The message "The export was successful." appears.
In a cmd window, change directory to the bin folder of the Java SDK that is used by the tooling installation (for example, C:\Sybase\JDK1.4.2_06) and run the following single command:
C:\Sybase\JDK1.4.2_06\bin>keytool -import -v -trustcacerts - file C:\SAPCert.cer -keystore C:\Sybase\JDK1.4.2_06\jre\lib\security\cacerts
where C:\SAPCert.cer is the certificate you exported and JDK1.4.2_06 is the Java SDK used by the Sybase WorkSpace tooling.
When prompted for the keystore password, enter the default password for the keystore, "changeit".
When asked "Trust this certificate? [no]:", type "yes" and press Enter.
The console displays: "Certificate was added to keystore" [Saving C:\Sybase\JDK1.4.2_06\jre\lib\security\cacerts].
After restarting the tooling, you can continue with the next step, connecting to the SAP UDDI Registry, without error.
Follow the instructions in Creating a UDDI Registry Connection Profile and select the SAP UDDI Registry template from the Commonly Used Registries menu.
The result is a functional SAP UDDI Registry connection profile.
