             Summary: Keystore change from JKS to PKCS12
                 Key: DIRSERVER-2242
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2242
             Project: Directory ApacheDS
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Stefan Seelmann


Until Java 8 the default key store was JKS, since Java 9 the default is PKCS12.

In the server code when we use key stores there is a mix of
 * KeyStore.getInstance( KeyStore.getDefaultType() );
 * KeyStore.getInstance( "JKS" );

This needs to be cleaned up.

There is also the question if an automatic migration from existing JKS stores in existing installations .to PKCS12 is possible

Workaround is to change default keystore to JKS (property keystore.type in $JAVA_HOME/conf/security/java.security)
