Sorry for this reply to my own message, but I found a work around (solution ?).
 
Make sure the password for the key you generate is the same as the password for the keystore.

Subject: "Cannot recover key" error and SSL

I know this has been discussed on the list before, but I have not been able to find a definitive solution by searching through the archives.
I'm running Tomcat 3.2 final on 3 different Windows 2000 Advanced Server boxes.  After following the instructions in the SSL doc that comes with Tomcat, I am able to get full SSL functionality working on one box, but not the other two boxes that have virtually identical installs and setups.
 
The error I am getting is "FATAL: java.io.IOException: Cannot recover key".
 
I have delete the key with keytool and generated a new one several times to no avail.
 
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?  I would appreciate the help.
 
Thanks.
 
Craig
