Certificate Import Error - toDerInputStream rejects tag type 45

[Steven_Smith1]

I’m trying to follow the instructions here:

https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-import-an-existing-ssl-certificate-and-private-key

and I am getting the following error when I try to import the keystoer:

keytool -importkeystore -deststorepass xxxxxx -destkeystore xxxxx.jks -srckeystore D:\certs\xxxxx.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12
Enter source keystore password:
keytool error: java.io.IOException: toDerInputStream rejects tag type 45

Has anyone experienced this as well? Does anyone know what I need to do to resolve it?

I could really use some help on this. Does anyone know what the issue could be? I haven’t found any useful info by googling.

keytool -importkeystore -deststorepass xxxxxx -destkeystore xxxxx.jks -srckeystore D:\certs\xxxxx.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12
Enter source keystore password:

Sorry you never got an answer on this and I hope you submitted a ticket to get it resolved. But that error means you need to make sure your VHost.xml has the correct KeyStorePath set to this file and the password is correct. Any changes you make will only take place when you save your changes and restart Engine.

Set the path and password within VHost.xml, restart the Wowza Streaming Engine service and you should be up and working.
