I tried your solution, the same with before, my steps : (RH7,
openssl0.9.5.a,Tomcat3.2.1,JDK1.3)
1. keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA
2. openssl req -new -out REQ.pem -keyout KEY.pem
3. openssl req -x509 -in REQ.pem -key KEY.pem -out CERT.pem
4. openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt -in KEY.pem -out KEY.der -outform der
5. openssl x509 -in CERT.pem -out CERT.der -outform der
6. java ImportKey KEY.der CERT.der
7. Modified server.xml and java.security, copy JSSE 3 Jars to
tomcat_home/lib,
no any error message display, when startup, a new message in console:
> PoolTcpConnector: Starting HttpconnectionHandler on 8443
Anything wrong? thank you very much.
Rgds,
Kevin
