Hello,
I didn't know whcih section to post this in on the site. I was hoping that there was a java security page. Anyway, I'm building a small java program for automation. The site requires a login but is also SSL/HTTPS. I can parse the web-page initially, but I don't know how to code the program to save certificates so that I can use them to authenticate against the https site... could anyone help with this? If you need clarification and more vivid detail, let me know.
Thanks,
dlopez
well in order to work with SSL certificate from Java program, your keystore (located in JRE/lib/security) directory must have those certificate well in advance. you can either manually or programatically by using InstallCert.java class, add those certificate in keystore. Some time back I have written a post on How to add or list certificates from keystore or trustStore in Java - Keytool Example, you can check that if it helps.
Thanks for that. I will check that out and see what I can come up with... I tried to manually put the key in the key store (via cmd prompt). However, it wouldn't take. On the business machine, I only have the JRE installed. I'm not for sure if that would be the issue, or not. I'm not as familiar with JAVA as I am with other languages...
