Hi All,
I am trying to use SSL with my MQ Series setup. I am using the redbook redp4140.pdf for reference.
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpapers/pdfs/redp4140.pdf
The steps which i can perform successfully are :
1. I was able to create a key repository for Queue Managers.
2. I was able to get a demo personal certificate without any problems.
3. I was able to export the installed personal certificate from the internet explorer certificate store.
Now, i am unable to import this exported certificate to the key repository which i created in Step 1. I am using the IBM Key Management tool.
The error which i get is "The specified Database is corrupted."
Can anyone help out with this one. |

Hi,
the first link mentions the JAVA_HOME variable, but this variable is not set on my machine. Should I add this parameter to the environment variables?
the second link is an older fix. I am using the latest version of MQ i.e. 6.0.2.1. Please suggest if i still need to go through the steps?
For now, as you have suggested i'll try out with self signed certificates.
Thanks in advance |

2. In Personal Certificate Clicked on Import
3. Selected PKCS12 and give the name and the path of the .pfx file

Now I discover it is not your thread.
It would be better to open new thread.
Open it and answer 2 additional questions.
What is this PKCS12 cert.
When you got first and when second error.
Any context ? _________________ Marcin |
