title: Unable to proxy Maven repo over https/ssl with Nexus
body: <p>I followed the instructions given on <a href="http://www.sonatype.com/books/nexus-book/reference/sect-ssl-client-cert.html" rel="nofollow">this page</a> to import the server certificate.</p>
  
  <p>When I use <code>keytool -list</code>, I can see that the certificate is actually in the keystore. If I try to import the <code>.crt</code> file, <code>keytool</code> warns me that the keystore already contains the certificate.</p>
  
  <p>Then I updated <code>wrapper.conf</code> with the two ssl options. I can see them on the command line of the Nexus process after a restart.</p>
  
  <p>But when I try to add a proxy repo for the remote server, I always get <code>sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target</code></p>
  
  <p>What did I miss?</p>
