Hello when http clients send a https request to wiremock server and it gets messagesun.security.validator.ValidatorException PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target error e.g. https://sample.com proxy: http://wiremock_host:port (browserProxyEnabled) do you have suggestions on how to avoid this https error without changing http clients as there are many clients in my use case?

You would need to add WireMock destination to the trust store on your client side. You can do it via JVM args without modifying the client (see ``-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore``)

@Oleg Nenashev I found the $HOME/.wiremock/ca-keystore.jks file on my local machine and added -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=$HOME/.wiremock/ca-keystore.jks onto my http client app as you suggested, but i am getting the following error:

Exception in thread "main" <http://javax.net|javax.net>.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Path does not chain with any of the trust anchors

at sun.security.ssl.Alert.createSSLException(Alert.java:131) should it be the .jks file on wiremock server not my local machine? but it’s the same file name.
