  3. Installed latest JDK on Slave machine and launched the slave.
  4. when tagged a job with slave and ran it, getting above error ..
  5. did search on google and as per search added public cert of my target TFS to the java keystore which is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\lib\security\cacerts.

By adding all the certs in the chain to the cacerts, issue got resolved.

  1. Get all the list of certs in the chain by using (replace your domain with google.com)
    openssl s_client -host google.com -port 443 -prexit -showcerts
  2. copy each certs in a seprate .pem file eg - VS_cert1.pem, VS_cert2.pem
  3. import all the certs to the java cacerts
    keytool -import -alias VS1 -file "C:\Users\xxxx\Desktop\Temp\VS_cert1.pem" -keystore "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\lib\security\cacerts"
    keytool -import -alias VS2 -file "C:\Users\xxxx\Desktop\Temp\VS_cert2.pem" -keystore "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_131\lib\security\cacerts"
  4. Bounce the service.

According to the error info sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested targe which clearly complains about certificate validation. This may due to when working on a client that works with an SSL enabled server running in https protocol.

Try to add -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore location in jenkins-slave.xml and well as add jssecacerts to lib\security of java used for your Jenkins's slave to run.

More info about the error please take a look this blog--unable to find valid certification path to requested target
