Configuring RTMPS

I am trying to get RTMPS working with Wowza but so far have failed to do so. I have tried setting it up as per the instructions in the user guide and this post.

I imported the chain certificate and the certificate itself as follows:

keytool -import -alias root -trustcacerts -file gd_bundle.crt -keystore ssl.servercerts
keytool -import -alias wowza -trustcacerts -file mycert.crt -keystore ssl.servercerts

The certificate is a wildcard certificate that I got from GoDaddy.

I then edited [install-dir]/conf/VHost.xml, uncommented the definition for port 443, and set the appropriate values for KeyStorePath and KeyStorePassword.

The start-up log shows that Wowza binds to port 443 successfully and there are no error messages in any of the logs when I try to connect; however, after some debugging, the SSL handshake appears to be failing. I am using Wowza on EC2.

Any ideas?

Thanks

What do you see if you open a web browser and enter the address:

https://[wowza-ip-address]

It should show lock icon and display Wowza Server version number. Does it ask you to download certificate? If you can’t sort this out on your own, please zip up and send us your conf and logs folders (support@wowza.com - be sure to reference this thread). Also, send us the ip address of your server.

Please zip up and send the Wowza conf and logs folders from this server, to support@wowza.com

I tried that but nothing happens. I tried the same thing with curl too.

I have zipped up the conf/ and logs/ directories as requested and have sent them to you.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

I have the exact issue given above. However I’m using wowza version 4. Please help.

For anyone who has the same issue:

  1. Convert your 3rd party certificate to java format as given here: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_…02@ddai.net%3E

  2. Edit your VHost.xml file and include the following under tag:

${com.wowza.wms.context.VHostConfigHome}/conf/server.p12

PKCS12

TLS

SunX509

  1. restart vhost/wowzaengine
