https client - defining the keystore path

[Nuno Feliciano]

Hi,

I’m trying to use an axis client to consume an https webservice.
I set the following properties

System.setProperty("axis.socketSecureFactory", 
"org.apache.axis.components.net.SunJSSESocketFactory");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore", "C:\\Program 
Files\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_14\\.keystore");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.passwordStore", "");                  
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "C:\\Program 
Files\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_14\\jre\\lib\\security\\cacerts");


But axis complains because it can’t find the keystore file in my user.home

java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.keystore (The 
system cannot find the file specified)


I thought the purpose of setting the "javax.net.ssl.keyStore" property was to 
tell axis not to look in the default place for the keystore, so why is it 
looking in my user.home folder, and how can I change that?
