Error implementing Certificate based authentication

  • 1.  Error implementing Certificate based authentication

    Posted Fri June 07, 2024 01:22 PM
     
    Hi All,
     
    I am trying to implement Certificate based authentication for one of my message flows, below is the scenario
     
    I have a Message Flow that gets triggered using "File Input" Node and uses HTTP Request Node to invoke external endpoint. 
     
    It is certificate based authentication with the endpoint. 
     
    I received a .pfx file using which I extracted .crt and tried installing it in Truststore. However, I am getting "403-Unauthorized" error while calling the endpoint.
     
    Not sure if I have configured wrongly or missing any steps.
     
    Any help would be much appreciated.
     
    Below is the error from HTTP Request node,
     
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
    <title>403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.</title>
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--

    background-color:#555555;}
    #content{margin:0 0 0 2%;position:relative;}
    .content-container{background:#FFF;width:96%;margin-top:8px;padding:10px;position:relative;}
    -->
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="header"><h1>Server Error</h1></div>
    <div id="content">
     <div class="content-container"><fieldset>
      <h2>403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.</h2>
      <h3>You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.</h3>
     </fieldset></div>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>
     
     
    Thanks,
    Syed
