Hi Mark,
Thanks for your quick response.
I should have been a little more clear. That snip was copied when I had only
one key entry in my keystore and both the passwords were the same.
Now coming to the actual issue. As long as there is only one key in the
keystore, it works perfectly fine and I can provide different passwords for
keystore and private key using keystorePass and keyPass options and it works
flawlessly. But the issue seems to be happening when I have multiple key
entries and that I store those key entries using different passwords. Then it
throws the error
For eg :
I have a keystore named servercerts. The keystore password is "changed"
In the keystore, I have 3 private keys (tomcatcert, adminuicert, wscert)
The password for tomcatcert is "fortomcat"
The password for adminuicert is "foradminui"
The password for wscert is "forwebserver"
Now I configured my server.xml to be
<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false"
sslProtocol="TLS" keyAlias ="adminuicert" keyPass="foradminui"
keystoreFile="bin/servercerts" keystorePass="changed"/>
Then when I start my tomcat, I run into this error. To be specific, with single
key entry in the keystore everything works fine. With multiple key entries and
different passwords, it throws the error.
Am I missing something here. Can you confirm whether it works fine in the above
scenario. I use jdk1.6.0_32 to generate the keystore.
Regards,
Arun

You have not specified the password for the key. Why would you expect this to
work?

Then read the Tomcat 7 documentation.

That is a 5+ year old bug against a version of the software 2 major versions
earlier than the one you are using. What do you think the chances are of it
being relevant here? Hint: If you had read the HTTP SSL configuration
documentation for Tomcat 7 you would know the answer to that question.

Clue may be found by reading the documentation for the version of the software
you are trying to use.

Read the documentation.
