| Issue | How to successfully run the RSA Key Generation Toolkit HTTP test client (Tomcat) 1) Tomcat logs "Trying to send error response: 501 - Trigger request is not supported in this version" 2) Regenerating seed at com.rsa.ctkip.wa.servlet.TestHTTPClient.main(TestHTTPClient.java:66) |
| Cause | 1) Tomcat 5.x interprets the client's HTTP POST to the default URL as a HTTP GET. A GET to the CtkipServlet URL is designed to cause a CT-KIP Server Trigger message but it is not implemented in the Key Generation Toolkit 1.2. 2) The data necessary to process the seed regeneration is not available. |
| Resolution | 1) Add a "/" to the servlet URL by either modifying the client source's default URL or providing the URL as a parameter when running the client. For example running the test client on the same machine as the Tomcat server can be successfully done like this: java -cp lib\ctkip-toolkit.jar;lib\xmlspy-schema-2006-sp2.jar;lib\certj.jar;lib\jsafe.jar;lib\log4j-1.2.8.jar;classes com.rsa.ctkip.wa.servlet.TestHTTPClient http://localhost:8080/CtkipServlet/ 2) Uncomment all five of the callback definitions in the CtkipServlet's web.xml file. Also, ensure that folder C:\ctkip\test_data exists and is writeable on the Tomcat platform as the reference callbacks write to this directory. This directory is defined by the constant FILE_LOCATION which defaults to C:\ctkip\test_data. If this is not a valid directory then the callbacks that reference FILE_LOCATION must be modified to use a valid directory.
