Last updated on FEBRUARY 15, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture - Version 12.2.1.2.0 and later

Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Using Enterprise Capture version 12.2.1.2.0, it is possible to successfully connect to a WebCenter Content: Imaging cluster and a WebCenter Content cluster using Load balanced SSL urls (Env A), but it fails when attempting to connect to the same Imaging / Content Server configuration (Env B) in a different environment. Connecting directly to the node works.

When attempting to connect to the (Env B) Imaging Load Balanced SSL URL, the following error is returned in the Capture server logs:
