The webserver updated its SSL cert to a new verisign signed cert and my java app can no longer connect.
I am using java 5 with a date on the cert file Nov 2006 in /usr/java/jre/lib/security
I get
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

How do I install a new key supplied by the server?
From a different java instance I get
Certificate chain received from eservices3.bus.att.com - 135.38.253.93 was not trusted causing SSL handshake failure.
I assume that it is from the same root problem.
Update Before the remote server was updated this worked with our standard java install. I didn't have to install any certs to get this to work last time around.
