SSL Handshake Error

[Former Member]

I am currently using an RFC of Type " HTTP Connections to External Sever" to establish connectivity with a third party system with Target Host as Spectrum.pitneybowes.com and Path Prefix as /Soap/ .

I have installed the SSL Certificate of the above Target Host in Strust and I am able to establish connectivity.

But when I use the Sub Domain of the above mentioned Target Host i.e. microbatch.spectrum.pitneybowes.com and Path Prefix as /Soap / with the very same SSL Certificate then I am not able to establish connectivity as it throws an SSL Handshake Error.

According to the owner of the third party system the SSL Certificate is a wild character certificate which supports multiple Sub Domains of Spectrum.Pitneybowes.com and it works fine for them over the URL and other applications .

However it's not working in SAP , kindly advice.

Hi Vishwam,

I've slightly changed the tags on your question, as "Security" is clearly the primary issue you are trying to solve, and "logging of RFC and web services" is more about collecting trace files. Although you've already got one of the top experts on the case with you in Samuli, but the new tag may attract the attention of others besides, as well as making this more visible to others with the same issue in the future who may be interested in the ultimate solution.

Cheers,

The target hosts might be differently configured, one requiring TLS while the other allowing SSLv3 (which is the default in SAP systems unless changed). What is the value of the instance profile parameter ssl/client_ciphersuites?

I assume you are testing the main domain and sub domain the same way, either in SM59 or in code? Testing one one way and the other another way would be silly.

You could remote to the SAP server and try the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the SAP notes.
