Symptoms

When HTTPS is enabled for Siebel Email Marketing Server, Siebel Web Server and the URL for Web Services (EAI Object Manager), when attempting to start EMS services, it fails to connect to Siebel Enterprise when trying to establish a connection to Siebel Enterprise.

The following error is seen in the related EMS log:

 
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Configure HTTPS protocol in the Siebel Enterprise

2. Install and configure the EMS daemons to connect to Siebel using https for the parameter esd.handler.webservice.url in esd.properties.

e.g: esd.handler.webservice.url=https://<siebel hostname>/eai_enu/start.swe?SWEExtSource=WebService&SWEExtCmd=Execute&WSSOAP=1

3. Start the ESD daemon - It will stop a few seconds later.

 Enable SSL - HTTPS in  Siebel and EMS
