Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> WAS 3.0.1 and SSLeay
We are using the Oracle Web Application Server 3.0.1.8 for AIX and try
to use SLeay certificates to activate SSL on the server. We created a
certificate-request, private key and a distinguished name file with
genreq and used the certificate-request to build a certificate with
SSLeay. When using this certificate for a web listener, the server keeps
saying: Error: Unable to load or decode certificate file(s).
Has anyone succeeded in using SSLeay certificates with the OWAS?
I would be grateful for any clue.
I know that oracle suggests to use a VeriSign certificate, but we use the OWAS in a science project and these certificates are too expensive. A test certificate from VeriSign worked, but is valid only for a short time.
Best regards,
