[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2015?page=comments#action_12442944 ] Vamsavardhana Reddy commented on GERONIMO-2015: -----------------------------------------------
I have written a simple java class to translate a JKS keystore to PKCS12 keystore. The class would iterate thru all key entries in JKS keystore and call setKeyEntry on the PKCS12 keystore. Then it will iterate thru all certificate entries in the JKS keystore and call setCertificateEntry() on the PKCS12 keystore. The Exception I logged above means that setCertificateEntry() on a PKCS12 keystore is not supported in Sun JDK 142. To reproduce the exception, invoke setCertificateEntry() method on a PKCS12 keystore KeyStore object in Sun JDK 1.4.2. > Let's replace JKS to PKCS12 key store type > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: GERONIMO-2015 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2015 > Project: Geronimo > Issue Type: Improvement > Security Level: public(Regular issues) > Components: security > Reporter: Nikolay Chugunov > Fix For: 1.2 > > Attachments: jksToPKCS12-1.1.1.patch, JKSToPKCS12.java, > jksToPKCS12.patch, keystore > > > Hello > Let's replace JKS to PKCS12 key store type; because PKCS12 is widely used key > store and Geronimo may not work on non-Sun VMs. > To fix this problem I have created the patch for Geronimo sources. > In brief the patch (attached) replaces JKS to PKCS12 key store type in > configurations files. > PKCS12 format of key store file is not java-specific and can be created and > read by other programs, e.g. Internet Explorer. In addition PKCS12 exists in > Bouncy Castle (http://www.bouncycastle.org) security provider, while JKS is > Sun specific key store and does not exist in Bouncy Castle. > Also it is needed to replace JKS to PKCS12 keystore file (attached) to > assemblies/j2ee-tomcat-server/src/var/security, > assemblies/j2ee-installer/src/var/security, > assemblies/j2ee-jetty-server/src/var/security directories. Key store file was > generating using JKSToPKCS12 class (attached). This class transfers key and > certificate of Geronimo from JKS to PKCS12. > After I apply this patch to Geronimo 1.0 sources and build Geronimo I can > login to Geronimo console over https. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
