Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
When the java client (qpid-java) parses the server certificate, it expects the 'subject' to begin with `CN=<hostname>`. If it does not, the certificate fails to parse correctly and the SSL hostname verification will fail. This will fail even if the `CN` appears elsewhere in the subject. The workaround is to make sure the subject starts with `CN`.
