Creating the keystore on WebLogic

The application server requires a keystore to hold the certificate that identifies Content Platform Engine and a self-signed certificate or a third-party certificate.

Procedure

To create the keystore:

  1. From the command line, change to a directory where you want to create the keystore. For best results, use a directory in your application server installation directory. For example, navigate to the WL_HOME/user_projects/domains/domain_name directory.
  2. Generate a self-signed server certificate by entering the following command:
    keytool -genkeypair -alias cpe-alias -keypass YourKeyPassword
     -keyalg RSA -validity NumberOfDays -keystore server.keystore -storepass YourStorePassword
     -dname "CN=YourHostName, OU=Unknown, O=Unknown, L=Unknown, ST=Unknown, C=Unknown"
    Restriction:

    If you plan to verify the host name later, you must include the -dname option as shown.

  3. Verify that the certificate was created in the keystore by entering the following command:
    keytool -list -v -keystore server.keystore -storepass YourStorePassword
