Question

Import Exchange cert into JVM for CF10

Hello, everyone.

I'm trying to learn the CFEXCHANGECONNECTION and CFEXCHANGECONTACT tags, and I'm having a bit of an issue.

When I first started playing around with it, I was getting error messages that the connection couldn't be formed because the Exchange server only accepts https connections, so I set the protocol to https.

Then I was getting an error message regarding the "cert not installed in CF server", so I managed to get a copy of the SSL cert (DER format .cer file) and followed instructions on how to import it into the JVM that CF uses.

I'm still getting the error saying that the cert isn't installed in CF server.  Any suggestions?

V/r,

^_^

Is there a setting in CFAdmin that I need to configure/change?

you need to add the cert to your jvm's keystore

something like this

dont worry its about domino, bottom line its importing a msexchange cert into a java keystore. I use portacle ( http://portecle.sourceforge.net/ ) for managing my java keystores

edit: I use JUST portacle to import they certs, no need to bother with command line, i left it here for the sake of completeness

Hi, Lynux,

Thanks for your reply.  I followed the instructions on the last post on this SO thread.  I checked CFAdmin to make sure I was importing to the correct JVM.  Still getting the error.

V/r,
