Hi.
I have a server app running on Railway (Hobby Plan).
There is a remote client that uploads data to that server using a REST API accessed through https.
During the last months all was running smoothly.
From last saturday (10 February 2024) the upload stopped misteriously: no new data is showing up on the server and the client app started notifying this weird error message:
"Got exception attempting status update: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found"
My client has not changed, my server app has not changed and I've made no changes at all to the server app environment… so I do not understand what's going on…
My suspect is that something has changed in the server app environment, but I have no clue on what it can be and what to do to restore the correct behaviour.
Can someone help me to find the problem?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi brody.
Thank you for your help.
Yes… I think… It's something like {bla bla bla}.up.railway.app

that would not be what is referred to as a custom domain.
I'm sure this type of issue is not the first time someone has experienced it, it certainly wouldn't be isolated to Railway in anyway, have you tried doing some research on that error message?

Sorry for that… I'm not so an experienced Railway user…
have you tried doing some research on that error message?
Yes… it seems that's something related to user certificates and server configuration, but I'm fairly sure that, when I first installed my server app, I did not tinkered with certificates so now I'm completely lost…

what is the domain that this client is calling?
Sorry for that brody, but I cannot publish it… it's a sort of "private" server…
Perhaps my problem depends on some policy change on "Hooby profiles", but at the moment I've found no hint on that…

at the moment I'm leaning to an issue with the client certs and not an issue with railway, can you try calling the server that's running on railway with a tool like postman / curl to verify that it's not an issue on railways side of things

Yes brody… I will give it a try with Postman… but it will be a bit tricky for me so I will come back with a response late today or tomorrow..
For now I thank you very much for your help and suggestments.
