Hello,

We are migrating Coldfusion from Centos 7.8 [CF2021] to Ubuntu 22.24 [CF2023].

I was wondering what are the best methods to export $CF_2021_DIR/jre/lib/security/cacerts and import them to the new server?

Is it the via scripts or can just cacerts file be copied over?

What is the recommeded way if any?

Thanks

Dejan

Hello Dejan,

Please run the command below for exporting the contents of cacerts from one Java to another Java, make sure you take a valid backup of cacerts before you make any changes

keytool.exe -importkeystore -srckeystore C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11\lib\security\cacerts -destkeystore C:\ColdFusion2023\jre\lib\security\cacerts -srcstorepass changeit -deststorepass changeit -v -noprompt

Thanks & Regards

Hi Ravi, thank you so much.

Just a follow up question.

Will this command merge and carry over outdated root certificates that might be in the old store?

Hello Dejan,

It will import all the contents from the existing cacerts to the destination cacerts

Thanks & Regards
