Filebot stopped working with connection error

[syner9y]

Hello. I have been using Filebot (called from uTorrent) for over 6 months now. Recently (not sure exactly when) Filebot stopped working and I was unsure why, so I updated to the latest version as well as updated Java to the latest version. Finally, I found the amc.log file and also tried running it from the CLI. Both give me an error that says:

SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Failure (°_°)

I am trying to include both the full logs and the CLI output, however every time I do it says the file extension is not allowed (I tried .txt, .log, and even no extension) so let me know how I can make those available, if needed. I did find an earlier post on here where someone had a similar issue, however their fix did not help me and the stackoverflow link posted there required manually loading the URL, which is something I am not sure of the actual URL I need to use. This is my first post for help, so I apologize if I messed something up, but I am happy to add more info or try anything you need to get this back up and running.

My system info:
Windows 8.1 64-bit
Filebot 4.5.6
JRE 1.8.0_31

Thanks!

Can anyone help me please?

You can post logs on pastebin.

2.
In this case I can't be much help though. Looks like the JRE has issues with the root certificates. Uninstalling and reinstalling Java might help. This seems to be a very odd issue with the Java runtime.

Thank you for your reply. I tried uninstalling Java, restarting the server, and then reinstalling without success. From looking at the logs, it appears as if it worked properly up until Jan 23rd, and then on Jan 24th is when it stopped. I am including both the CLI output as well as a portion of the amc logs (I was going to include the whole thing but it is too big for pastebin, so I included everything from Jan 23rd on).

CLI output: http://pastebin.com/ucdQ1vs4

amc logs: http://pastebin.com/haepTtZJ

I would love to get this going so any thoughts you have, or anything I can try to fix would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Alternatively, perhaps you can give me the URL it is trying to connect to? Every single answer I see on Google for this error says you resolve it by manually importing the site certificate, which I can only do with the URL.

You can use Fiddler to see all the HTTP(S) requests => http://www.telerik.com/fiddler

Looking at the logs, it look like ALL https requests fail, not just one specific site.

[syner9y]

So I used Fiddler to look at the traffic, however according to Fiddler, no HTTPS request are made. I see the requests made to app.filebot.net:443, however it is making this over an HTTP connection. When I try to access the same URL by copying it from Fiddler, I get a 400 error. Is this why it is failing? Because Filebot is making incorrect HTTPS calls?

Looks like there's something broken in the Java platform or OS layer on your machine. Nothing I could fix in the FileBot code though...
