Hi.

I'm trying to setup WMB 7 as a WS Security provider, and have followed the tutorial on setting it up, with one exception - i would like it to run with EG level keystores/truststores instead of broker level.

I have my Policy Set binding set up to point to a key with the alias "selfsigned", and i've set the EG level keystore/truststore to the keystore, and set the password.

Code:

keystoreType='JKS'
keystoreFile='c:\work\selfsigned.jks'
keystorePass='default::keystorePass'
truststoreType='JKS'
truststoreFile='c:\work\selfsigned.jks'
truststorePass='default::truststorePass'


I've set the passwords with
Code:

C:\>mqsisetdbparms BROKER -n default::keystorePass -u na -p password
C:\>mqsisetdbparms BROKER -n default::truststorePass -u na -p password


And when i try testing with SoapUI, i get the following error :
Code:

         <faultcode>axis2ns1:FailedAuthentication</faultcode>
         <faultstring>CWWSS6521E: The Login failed because of an exception: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity.core.SoapSecurityException: CWWSS5312E: The Application Server cannot retrieve the 'selfsigned' key from the 'c:\work\selfsigned.jks' keystore. The following exception occurred: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: password can't be null</faultstring>


any hints ? ideas ?

Thanks.
/J

check the documentation again. I don't believe you can use default::keystorepass. The part before the :: might be mandatory as per description in the documentation... meaning you can't change it to what identifier you want...

Here's how to do it in one go - no security id needed.

mqsichangeproperties <brokername> -o "HTTPSConnector" -e <EGname> -n keystoreFile,keystorePass,keystoreType -v /path/keystore.jks,password,JKS

I checked again, according to this http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSKM8N_7.0.0/com.ibm.etools.mft.doc/ap34020_.htm?lang=en

i should set the properties to "eg_nameKeyStore::password", in my case "defaultKeystore::password", and set the dbparms key as "defaultKeystore::password"

Code:

C:\>mqsichangeproperties BROKER -e default -o ComIbmJVMManager -n keystorePass -v defaultKeystore::password


still gives me the same error

Is the keystore / truststore accessible to the broker's service id? (check file permissions)

Yeah, just to be sure i copied it to a temporary directory, and set full access to it. Still the same error.

I solved this, though I'm not sure what i did to solve it

After many tries i finally deleted everything (Execution group, WMB workdir, db parms, policy set, etc) and started over, and following the tutorial once more it finally worked.
