Gives error: "Error: Could not find or load main class sslpoke" (I also tried SSLPoke on the command line)

Yeah, I don't do Java, so it looks good to me, and I want to add a --Look_in_the_dang_file to tell it to not be an idiot and look in the file for the class, it is right there, static main... I just copied the 'raw' and then pasted it into a file and ran it with java SSLPoke site.name.com 8693

Hi @traderhut,
expecting you are running this in the same folder the SSLPoke.java is it seems like you are trying to run the source code, not the compiled stuff.
So, run the compiler first:
javac SSLPoke.java
Make sure it produces SSLPoke.class file.
and then run the interpreter:
java SSLPoke site.name.com 8693

@traderhut Also if your Java version is at least JDK 11 you can run the file without compiling it. Just copy the content and paste it into a file name SSLPoke.java — the .java extension is important — then run it

$ java -version
openjdk version "11.0.12" 2021-07-20 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Corretto-11.0.12.7.2 (build 11.0.12+7-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Corretto-11.0.12.7.2 (build 11.0.12+7-LTS, mixed mode)

$ java SSLPoke.java google.com 443

The error you encounter is probably because you run the following command java sslpoke {site} {port}. Without the .java extension the command assumes it is a compiled class. Look at the help.

$ java --help
Usage: java [options] <mainclass> [args...]
           (to execute a class)
   or  java [options] -jar <jarfile> [args...]
           (to execute a jar file)
   or  java [options] -m <module>[/<mainclass>] [args...]
       java [options] --module <module>[/<mainclass>] [args...]
           (to execute the main class in a module)
   or  java [options] <sourcefile> [args]
           (to execute a single source-file program)

Been a while since I looked at Java, like about a year after it came out... Thanks for the assistance, turns out I solved the problem without using this tool

fyi, I use this with this CLI:

java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/store/LdapSSLKeyStore.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=123 -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks SSLPoke myserver.local 443

#or with debug and force certain protocol
java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/store/LdapSSLKeyStore.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=123 -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks -Djavax.net.debug=ssl:handshake:verbose -Djdk.tls.client.protocols=TLSv1 -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1  SSLPoke myserver.local 443

java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/store/LdapSSLKeyStore.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=123 -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=jks SSLPoke

Very cool. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
