certificates,https, axis and weblogic 8.1

[Arthur Ford]

Hi Folks,

I have been trying this for the last couple of weeks. I want to deploy a webserivice in weblogic which shud be accessed by https.

My webservice shud be registered as https://localhost:7002/XContext/XService/XPort

For this I am using apache axis 1.4. I used the demo trust and demo key in weblogic. When I try to run AdminClient I get this error -

[B]java org.apache.axis.client.AdminClient -lhttps://localhost:7002/TATestClient/services/AdminService deploy.wsd
d[/B]- Unable to find required classes (javax.activation.DataHandler and javax.mail.i
nternet.MimeMultipart). Attachment support is disabled.

Then I did some R&D, and I guess I need to set up my server with some keystores.

I did have a certificatefile PEM and a keyfile PEM. I tried using the utils.ImportPrivateKey. Now, I get this error

[B]java utils.ImportPrivateKey mylocal.JKS mypassword myAlias mypassword TEST_CERTIFICATE.pem TEST_CA.pem JKS[/B]
Failed to import private key and certificate to the keystore file mylocal.

        at utils.ImportPrivateKey.main(ImportPrivateKey.java:26)

Now I am totally confused and I have no clue abt this. Any help will do.

Hi
I was using SOAP-UI for testing one of our web services. Even i got that same SSL exception. ALl i did was imported the certificate into the default cacerts of the JRE and it worked fine.
