  1. POSetting up Tomcat with SSL on Eclipse: "keystoreFile" has no effect
    text
    copied!<p>I'm setting up a test environment with Tomcat6 + SSL on Eclpse</p> <p>I edited the <code>server.xml</code> file (in Eclipse server folder) and uncommented the SSL connector. I then made a self signed certificate following <a href="http://www.mkyong.com/tomcat/how-to-configure-tomcat-to-support-ssl-or-https/" rel="nofollow">this how-to</a>. Everything works fine until I keep the keystore file in my home directory but, when I try placing it in another folder and I set the "keystoreFile" parameter i get this error message at startup:</p> <pre><code>GRAVE: Failed to load keystore type JKS with path C:\Documents and Settings\myUser/.keystore due to C:\Documents and Settings\myUser\.keystore (Impossibile trovare il file specificato) java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Documents and Settings\myUser\.keystore (Impossibile trovare il file specificato) </code></pre> <p>It seems Tomcat doen't read my keystoreFile parameter.</p> <p>here is my <code>server.xml</code> file (SSL related parts only)</p> <pre><code> ... &lt;!--APR library loader. Documentation at /docs/apr.html --&gt; &lt;Listener SSLEngine="on" className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener"/&gt; ... &lt;Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="C:\myPath\.keystore" keystorePass="******" /&gt; ... </code></pre> <p><strong>Update</strong></p> <p>I exported my project as a <code>.war</code> file and deployed it on a <em>stand-alone</em> Tomcat. It works so it must be Eclipse the cause of my problem. If it may help I'm using Eclipse Helios (Service Release 2).</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p><strong>Epilogue</strong></p> <p>At last it came out, thanks to Bruno, that it was Eclipse messing up with deploying files. After cleaning eclipse deploy folder everything worked.</p>
