Error - trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

Question

I'm trying to configure my e-mail on Jenkins/Hudson, and I constantly receive the error:

java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be

    non-empty

I've seen a good amount of information online about the error, but I have not gotten any to work. I'm using Sun's JDK on Fedora Linux (not OpenJDK).

Here are a few things I've tried. I tried following the advice from this post, but copying the certs from Windows over to my Fedora box hosting Jenkins didn't work. I tried following this guide as I'm trying to configure Gmail as my SMTP server, but it didn't work either. I also tried to download and move those cacert files manually and move them over to my Java folder using a variation of the commands on this guide.

I am open to any suggestions as I'm currently stuck right now. I have gotten it to work from a Windows Hudson server, but I am struggling with Linux.

Answer 1

I have tried the following and this fixed the problem for me on Ubuntu:

sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/ca-certificates-java.postinst configure

ca-certificates-java is not a dependency in the Oracle JDK/JRE (Java Runtime Environment). So, this must be explicitly installed.
