Recommended Method: Use the DigiCert Java Keytool CSR Wizard. Save yourself some time: Use the DigiCert Java Keytool CSR Wizard to generate a Keytool command to create your Tomcat keystore and CSR. Simply fill out the form, click Generate, and then paste your customized Java Keytool command into your terminal. The Java keytool utility creates both your private key and your certificate signing. Java Keytool can be used to generate Java keystores, certificate signing requests (CSRs), convert certificate formats, and other certificate related functions. Keytool is bundled with Oracle's JDK. This article will walk through generating a CSR as well as generating a private key if one is not already available.

To Use keytool to Create a ServerCertificate

Run keytool to generate a new key pair in the defaultdevelopment keystore file, keystore.jks. This exampleuses the alias server-alias to generate a new public/privatekey pair and wrap the public key into a self-signed certificate inside keystore.jks. The key pair is generated by using an algorithm oftype RSA, with a default password of changeit. For moreinformation and other examples of creating and managing keystore files, readthe keytool online help at http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/solaris/keytool.html. /civilization-5-product-key-generator.html.

RSA is public-key encryption technology developed by RSA DataSecurity, Inc.

From the directory in which you want to create the key pair, run keytool as shown in the following steps.

Java Keytool

1. Generate the server certificate.

   Type the keytool command all on one line:

   When you press Enter, keytool prompts you to enterthe server name, organizational unit, organization, locality, state, and countrycode.

   You must type the server name in response to keytool’sfirst prompt, in which it asks for first and last names. Navman product key generator download. For testing purposes,this can be localhost.

   When you run the example applications, the host (server name) specifiedin the keystore must match the host identified in the javaee.server.name property specified in the file tut-install/examples/bp-project/build.properties.

2. Export the generated server certificate in keystore.jks intothe file server.cer.

   Type the keytool commandall on one line:

3. If you want to have the certificate signed by a CA, read the exampleat http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/solaris/keytool.html.

4. To add the server certificate to the truststore file, cacerts.jks, run keytool from the directory where you createdthe keystore and server certificate.

   Use the following parameters:

   Information on the certificate, such as that shown next, will appear:

5. Type yes, then press the Enter or Return key.
