Import private key and certificate into java keystore

From time to time you have to update your SSL keys and certificates. In some cases you may have a mixed infrastructure e.g. “normal” http servers and tomcat or other java based servers. In the latter case you’ll have to import your shiny new certificate and key into your java keystore.

There are several methods […]

certificate is signed using a weak signature algorithm!

Turns out that this results in SSL certificates that use the weaker MD5 signature hash algorithm which is the cause of the complaint. This is easily fixed by adding ‘-sha1’ to the openssl command line when generating the certificate. Like so:

$ openssl req -new -x509 -sha1 […]
