Connection to Composer UI is not private

Problem

--A security warning received when accessing the Composer URL through HTTPS. See attached screenshot.

--If click on Advanced > Proceed to unsafe, you will be able to download the Composer.jnlp file, but the connection will still appear as untrusted.

Resolution

*The reason is that the certificate used is not valid / trusted because is not signed by a trusted authority, especially when the default certificates (provided by Axway) are used.

*The certificates delivered with Composer are only for testing purposes, it is not recommended to use them in production/real environment.

*In addition, you can try to get rid of this warning following these steps:

- Open Configure Java / Java Control Panel -> go in Advanced tab -> under the section Perform TLS certificate revocation check on -> select the option -> Do not check (not recommended) or Server certificate only -> click Apply -> click OK

- Clear the browser cache and retry to access the Composer URL.

*We strongly recommend you use a custom certificate and the procedure to integrate it with Composer is described here:
