Error description

  • Error Message: keytool error:  Input not an X.509 certificate
.
Stack Trace: N/A
.

Local fix

  • The workaround is converting the input to ASCII

Problem summary

  • I am trying to import a server CA certificate (generated on
z/OS)  to
the client under USS on the same system using the following
command:
keytool -importcert -file db.cacert -trustcacerts -keystore
myTrustStore -alias db_ca
and got the exception:
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Input not an X.509
certificate
However, when I import the same CA certificate to a Windows
machine,
the import worked successfully.

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
6.0.0 SR12
6.0.1 SR4
7.0.0 SR3
5.0.0 SR15
.
Add support for reading EBCDIC certificates in addition to ASCII
certificates.

Temporary fix
