How to connect to a secure website using SSL in Java with a pkcs12 file?

Question

I have a pkcs12 file. I need to use this to connect to a webpage using https protocol. I came across some code where in order to connect to a secure web page i need to set t

Answer 1

This is an example to use ONLY p12 file it's not optimazed but it work. The pkcs12 file where generated by OpenSSL by me. Example how to load p12 file and build Trust zone from it... It outputs certificates from p12 file and add good certs to TrustStore

KeyStore ks=KeyStore.getInstance("pkcs12");
ks.load(new FileInputStream("client_t_c1.p12"),"c1".toCharArray());

KeyStore jks=KeyStore.getInstance("JKS");
jks.load(null);

for (Enumerationt=ks.aliases();t.hasMoreElements();)
{
    String alias = t.nextElement();
    System.out.println("@:" + alias);
    if (ks.isKeyEntry(alias)){
        Certificate[] a = ks.getCertificateChain(alias);
        for (int i=0;i0)
                jks.setCertificateEntry(x509.getSubjectDN().toString(), x509);
            System.out.println(ks.getCertificateAlias(x509));
            System.out.println("ok");
        }
    }
}

System.out.println("init Stores...");

KeyManagerFactory kmf=KeyManagerFactory.getInstance("SunX509");
kmf.init(ks, "c1".toCharArray());

TrustManagerFactory tmf=TrustManagerFactory.getInstance("SunX509");
tmf.init(jks);

SSLContext ctx = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
ctx.init(kmf.getKeyManagers(), tmf.getTrustManagers(), null);
