It is important that the server.crt and server.key files are in so-called PEM format. So they have to be text files and look like: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- <some base64 encoded data> -----END CERTIFICATE----- and -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- <some base64 encoded data> -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- This is the default format produced by openssl. The private key format is also openssl-specific, so probably you are out of luck with keytool. Regards, Martin -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!
