We have a pretty standard Java J2EE Web and Ear application, where we have an ear with web applications (no ejbs or web services) but we do have security involved and a database jndi configuration. But for some reason, we keep getting these SSL errors.
It could be related that we use the CAR import restore/backup with RAD IDE and Websphere traditional. Don't know.
We get this ssl message and seems to stop the server from starting. The ssl settings which we aren't using go out for 1 year into 2025 so no not expired. What is admin-authz?
