[FIXED] Intellij Maven Repository self signed certificate, ssl error

Issue

In intellij (15.0.4) under settings->Maven->Repositories I get an error when clicking update on the companies repositories.

org.apache.maven.wagon.TransferFailedException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

I can understand, since it is a self-signed untrusted certificate, however, I have added this certificate to settings->Tools->Server Certificates->Accepted Certificates.

I also added to settings->Maven->Runner->VM Options -Dmaven.wagon.http.ssl.allowall=true -Dmaven.wagon.http.ssl.insecure=true

I still get this problem.

Greatful for a solution.

Solution

Update both Maven Importer and Runner in settings to allow all.

-Dmaven.wagon.http.ssl.insecure=true -Dmaven.wagon.http.ssl.allowall=true

Runner

Importer
