Its not often that one finds a solution to his own problem. Here it is though:
Go to this website: http://www.comu.de/docs/tomcat_ssl.htm Follow the instructions EXACTLY. The step regarding the java comu.ImportKey may not work, in that case go to http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore/localServer/install/installCert. shtml and download ImportKey.jar And to execute the importkey program type in "java -cp ImportKey.jar comu.Importkey ..." There will be some German output at the end. A file called keystore.tomcat will be generated. Make sure server.xml points to this file.

However, importing a Verisign, or even openssl certificate causes problems. The importing part is ok. However, then I cannot connect to https:\\localhost. Looks like handshake fails when I start the tomcat web server. I put the certificate in p7b (pkcs7) format but I cannot import it then. Are there any other ideas anyone can suggest? I urgently need a fix to this problem. My environment is Windows XP with Tomcat 4.1.18 Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
