這兩天Java服務器上忽然遇到這樣的異常：
avax.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
問題的根本是：
缺少安全證書時出現的異常。
解決問題方法：
將你要訪問的webservice/url....的安全認證證書導入到客戶端即可。
以下是獲取安全證書的一種方法，通過以下程序獲取安全證書：

編譯InstallCert.java，然后執行：java InstallCert hostname，比如：
java InstallCert www.twitter.com
會看到如下信息：
java InstallCert www.twitter.com

Opening connection to www.twitter.com:443

輸入1，回車，然后會在當前的目錄下產生一個名為“ssecacerts”的證書。
將證書拷貝到$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security目錄下，或者通過以下方式：
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "你的jssecacerts證書路徑");
注意：因為是靜態加載，所以要重新啟動你的Web Server，證書才能生效。
試了以上的方法，后來發現還不行。最后突然心血來潮：我把Myeclipse關閉，直接啟動Tomcat，然后運行，居然就可以了。具體原因沒有找到。估計是
我的Myeclipse引用的JDK引用不對。后來就沒有具體找原因了。
