Hi, Thanks for the response, the workaround was a success.
I now have an additional problem further down the line with the handshake which I believe is not camel related. I get the error Unparseable certificate extensions: 1 [1]: ObjectId: 2.5.29.31 Criticality=false Unparseable CRLDistributionPoints extension due to java.io.IOException: invalid URI name:ldap://crl.inov.xxxx.net:389/cn=VI CA2,c=US,ou=xxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx,o=xxxx?certificateRevocationList The certificate is provided to us by a third party and the failure is on parsing their response from the handshake. I have xxxx the company identifying info from the uri but the format is the same I assume there is a problem with their certificate or service but does anyone know a way to ignore this error? I did read that upgrading to HTTPClient 2.x may resolve it but I don't think you can do that with Camel 2.10.1?
