I'm trying to connect to a secured websocket using Jetty (or any other library).
The issue is I get a "No trusted certificate found" error. I'm using a self-signed certificate generated with keytool. What could be done?

Here's an attempt with Tyrus websocket client, I don't get SSL error, but it prints nothing:
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.glassfish.grizzly.ssl.SSLEngineConfigurator;
import org.glassfish.tyrus.client.ClientManager;
import org.glassfish.tyrus.container.grizzly.GrizzlyEngine;
public class ClientWebSocketEndpoint extends Endpoint {
public static void main(String[] a) throws IOException{
ClientManager client = ClientManager.createClient();
//System.getProperties().put("javax.net.debug", "all");
final SSLContextConfigurator defaultConfig = new SSLContextConfigurator();
defaultConfig.retrieve(System.getProperties());
// or setup SSLContextConfigurator using its API.
SSLEngineConfigurator sslEngineConfigurator =
new SSLEngineConfigurator(defaultConfig, true, false, false);
client.getProperties().put(GrizzlyEngine.SSL_ENGINE_CONFIGURATOR,
sslEngineConfigurator);
Session session = null;
final ClientEndpointConfig cec = ClientEndpointConfig.Builder.create().build();
try {
session = client.connectToServer(ClientWebSocketEndpoint.class, cec, new URI("wss://qa.sockets.stackexchange.com/"));// or "wss://echo.websocket.org"
} catch (DeploymentException | URISyntaxException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (session != null && session.isOpen())
session.close(new CloseReason(CloseReason.CloseCodes.GOING_AWAY, "Bye"));
}
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
br.readLine();
}
@Override
public void onOpen(Session session, EndpointConfig config) {
session.addMessageHandler(new MessageHandler.Whole<String>() {
@Override
public void onMessage(String message) {
System.out.println("Received message: "+message);
}
});
try {
session.getBasicRemote().sendText("1-questions-active");
session.getBasicRemote().sendText("155-questions-active");
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
In comparison this simple code in JS/node works
var WebSocket = require('ws')
, ws = new WebSocket('wss://qa.sockets.stackexchange.com/');//"wss://echo.websocket.org"
ws.on('message', function(message) {
console.log('received: %s', message);
});
ws.on('open', function() {
ws.send('155-questions-active');
ws.send('1-questions-active');
});
I'd be happy to know a working websocket client in Java
The correct way would be to configure your Client keystore / truststore to trust your specific self signed server certificate. There's plenty of answers on stackoverflow demonstrating how to do this with Java by simply configuring the keystore and/or truststore file contents appropriately. (no code necessary).
If you want to "just connect", and you don't care about trust, certificate validity, or even endpoint identification validation (basically all of the good things that make up a well secured connection) then you don't need to mess with keystores, and truststores, or custom X509TrustManagers or even customized SSLContexts to connect to the service. This need is common during development/testing/qa time, but should not be used in production code.
How you would do this with Jetty 9.4.35.v20201120 is to just configure the SslContextFactory.Client (that belongs to the HttpClient, which WebSocketClient is using) to trust all certificates.

public class SecureClientSocket

private static final Logger LOG = Log.getLogger(SecureClientSocket.class);
public static void main(String[] args)
{
String url = "wss://qa.sockets.stackexchange.com/";
SslContextFactory.Client sslContextFactory = new SslContextFactory.Client();
// Tell sslContextFactory to trust all server certificates
// This is suitable for test/qa environments, and internal environments,
// but IS NOT SUITABLE FOR PRODUCTION.
// Note: this is not actually necessary for wss://qa.sockets.stackexchange.com/
sslContextFactory.setTrustAll(true);
// If you do choose to comment out the above, this option will cause the
// Java client side SSL/TLS to validate the server certificate name
// against the URL used to connect to the server, if it doesn't match
// then the connection is not established.
sslContextFactory.setEndpointIdentificationAlgorithm("HTTPS");
HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient(sslContextFactory);
try
{
httpClient.start();
WebSocketClient client = new WebSocketClient(httpClient);
client.start();
SecureClientSocket socket = new SecureClientSocket();
Future<Session> fut = client.connect(socket, URI.create(url));
Session session = fut.get();
session.getRemote().sendString("Hello");
session.getRemote().sendString("155-questions-active");
}
catch (Throwable t)
{
LOG.warn(t);
}
}
@OnWebSocketConnect
public void onConnect(Session sess)
{
LOG.info("onConnect({})", sess);
}
@OnWebSocketClose
public void onClose(int statusCode, String reason)
{
LOG.info("onClose({}, {})", statusCode, reason);
}
@OnWebSocketError
public void onError(Throwable cause)
{
LOG.warn(cause);
}
@OnWebSocketMessage
public void onMessage(String msg)
{
LOG.info("onMessage() - {}", msg);
}
}
Which will have results like this ...
