Summary :
When using SAP Business Connector (BC) as an SSL client, several issues may occur, such as handshake failures, invalid SSL messages, and alerts related to bad record MAC and broken certificate chains. These errors indicate problems in SSL communication, often due to incorrect or expired certificates, or mismatches between server certificates and private keys. Errors also arise when BC acts as an HTTPS server, such as invalid PKCS#1 padding errors. The note outlines steps to resolve these issues, including upgrading BC, validating and correcting certificate chains, and adjusting BC configuration to handle longer certificate chains for SSL clients or servers. Solutions involve detailed adjustments in server configuration files and SSL settings to ensure correct implementation of security protocols.
