Jsse / SSL / Tomcat

[zze-messager FTM balr002 <me...@rd.francetelecom.com>]

Hello,

I need to use HTTPS 

1. I've installed jsse.jar, jnet.jar and jcert.jar both in $JDK/jre/lib/ext
and in $TOMCAT/lib.
2. I need now to create a server certificate : I've tried the command line :


		keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA

-> i'm asked for the password : changeit
but, the following error appears : keytool generator notr available.

What's haapened ?
What can i do ?
What's does it mean "tomcat" after the key word "alias" ??


Tanks for help, 

Delphine

What version of the JDK are you using? Are you using Sun's JVM?

That's the alias/name that is associated with the certificate that you are
creating.
