SSL Hostname verification in Weblogic Server

While accessing any webservice on SSL, if you get the below error in the logs - 

<Notice> <StdErr> <BEA-000000> <javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Failed to access the WSDL at: https://<Host-Name>:<Port>/<Webservice Endpoint>?wsdl. It failed with: [Security:090504]Certificate chain received from <Host-Name>.<Domain-Name> failed hostname verification check. Certificate contained *.<Domain Name> but check expected  <Host-Name>.<Domain-Name>

To Resolve this follow the below steps to disable the host name verification in WLS –

1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
2. In the left pane of the Console, expand Environment and select Servers.
3. Click the name of the server for which you want to disable host name verification.
4. Select Configuration > SSL , and click Advanced at the bottom of the page.
5. Set the Hostname Verification field to None.
6. Click Save.
7. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
   Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).

Note: This is not recommended for Production Environment.
