Please help with APR configuration

[alla winter]

I am trying to set up Tomcat 5.0.28 with APR 1.1.9 on the Windows 2000
workstation
I downloaded openssl.exe and tcnative-1.dll and put them in the tomcat's bin
directory
I put an existing signed certificate and the key that works in production
with APACHE web server into TOMCAT conf directory and updated my
server.xml( see bellow), but I am getting the following error message:
SEVERE: Error initializing endpoint
java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\.keystore (The system cannot find the file
specified)
 at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)...

that seems to me that APR had not been installed and it is looking for
java's keystore.
I even put an explicit reference to this directory in catalina.bat (set
PATH=%PATH%;%CATALINA_HOME%\bin) , but it didn't make any diference.  What
am I doing wrong?

I would appreciate your help.  thanks
