Check to see if the company used a
different certificate provider. Some of the cheaper providers have problems and
can cause issues like this.

Subject: [cinjug-users] Site
certificate problem
Wondering if someone could help me out with this...
We have been regularly making SSL socket connections to a
https site. Now all of a sudden they no longer work. It appears that the site
had updated their SSL certificate.
I have tried importing their site certificate into the
cacerts file with no success.
Here is the exact error I am getting...
javax.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
I am not entirely sure what this means. Can anyone
provide some insight?
