FMW 12.2.1.3 Outbound Two-way SSL Connection Using a Client Identity not Working (Doc ID 2635738.1)

Last updated on JUNE 07, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle WebLogic Server - Version 12.2.1.3.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

A WLS installation recently migrated to FMW 12.2.1.3 and outbound two-way connections stop working (getting 403 error). In another FMW 12.1.3 environment, using the same certificate to connect to the same target server, it's still working.

When looking into config.xml, we can see that the use of server certs is enabled for 2 way and also that we are specifying a different alias (other than the server alias):

<use-server-certs>true</use-server-certs>
<use-client-cert-for-outbound>true</use-client-cert-for-outbound>
<client-cert-alias>some_ssl_alias_found_in_identity_keystore</client-cert-alias>
