Hello,

I am working on integrating Salesforce.com and external system (ERP).  I am making a call out using SOAP API

What I have provided to third party?
- Create a user for integration and shared the username,password&securitytoken
-Created an global apex class with webservice methods.
-Generated WSDL from above class
-Generated Enterprise WSDL

What I received from third party?
-WSDL (https end point)
-.PEM certificate and .pfx format certifcate

Development process on Salesforce side

I have generated a single Apex class (Gnerate from WSDL) from the WSDL I recieved from third party.

One of the classes generated is below

public class HTTPS_Port {
        public String endpoint_x = ‘bhla bhla…’;
        public Map<String,String> inputHttpHeaders_x;
        public Map<String,String> outputHttpHeaders_x;
        public String clientCertName_x;
        public String clientCert_x;
        public String clientCertPasswd_x;
        public Integer timeout_x;



            WebServiceCallout.invoke(
              this,
              request_x,
              response_map_x,
              new String[]{endpoint_x,
              'http://sap.com/xi/WebService/soap1.1',
              'urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style',
              'YRequest',
              'urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style',
              'YRequestResponse',
              'WebServiceClient.YRequestResponse_element'}
            );
            response_x = response_map_x.get('response_x');
            return response_x.FStatus;
        }
    }


I have generated an apex class to call the third party service (above generated class). In this class I have to provide the following

public String clientCertName_x;// may be this is required if the certificate is generated with in SAlesforce org. So I might not need to pass this info.
        public String clientCert_x; // This is the certifcate which has based64. I am good with this
        public String clientCertPasswd_x; // what is the password i need to enter  here. I asked third party to give this password but they say don't have it. Where do i get this password from?

My call fails if I don't enter the password. Error is - CertPasswd cannot be null
If the give a blank string for the password, the Error is "Error MessageIO Exception: DER input, Integer tag error"

I am stuck with the password issue here. Can someone help me out if there is something to be on Salesforce side? Am I missing something?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
