    SSL Configuration - import Certificate, Chain Certificate

    nschweig

      Hi,

       

      I´ve created a server certificate with OpenSSL.

       

      "openssl genrsa -out myserver.key 2048"


      Then I created the request-file for my Certificate:


      openssl req -batch -config myserver.cfg -new -key myserver.key -out myserver.csr"


      I have got now the following files:


      certificate.pem      myserver.csr    myserver.key

       

      In the documentation I found the following:

       

      • Import the Chain Certificate into your keystore
        • keytool -import -alias root -keystore <your_keystore_filename> \ -trustcacerts -file <filename_of_the_chain_certificate>
      • And finally import your new Certificate
        • keytool -import -alias tomcat -keystore <your_keystore_filename> \ -file <your_certificate_filename>

       

      My questions:

      What is  <your_keystore_filename>?  And what is <filename_of_the_chain_certificate>?


      Thanks a lot

      Nicole
