Generating .keystore does not work
Hi there!!
We are using Tomcat 4.0.1 on Solaris 8.
We have been attempting to get SSL to work on Tomcat by following the
document @ http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/ssl-howto.html.
When we run $JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA this is
what happens:
./keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA
Enter keystore password: changeit
keytool error: KeyPairGenerator not available
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Which version of JDK are u using?
Sun's JDK comes along with the KeyPairGenerator in the form of sunrsasign.jar
in the jre/lib directory.
The IBM's jdk doesn't come along with the RSA provider so u have to put the
sunrsasign.jar in the jre/lib/ext directory and edit the java.security file
to include that
security.provider.3=com.sun.rsajca.Provider
Hope that helps
Cheers
Sachin

Yes, I found that problem too, also on Solaris, when I installed TC 3.2.3.
It has _nothing_ to do with Tomcat. It was a known bug with JDK. I got
another release and it worked fine. ... I seem to recall I'm using
1.3.01.
Good luck,
