Error description

  • Error Message: Customer is unable to work with their kdb file
    with either ikeyman or gsk7cmd.
    Both forms produce an error like the following:
    Ikeyman shows error code 32
    
    Error Code:
    23
    .
    Stack Trace: com.ibm.gsk.ikeyman.error.KeyManagerException:
    
    java.security.KeyStoreException: java.lang.NullPointerException

    .
    

Local fix

  • There are a pair of NON-UTF8 quotation marks "" in the
    labels which cause the NullPointerException. So the fix here is
    to correct the label names to ONLY UTF-8 chars or simply just
    remove the NON-UTF8 quotation marks from the labels.
