(Optional) Configure SSL for IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop

If SSL is used to secure the connection between IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop and IXIASOFT TEXTML Server, you must configure SSL in CCMS Desktop by using the keytool command in the embedded JRE/JDK of the package.

Note: If you are using a trusted certificate authority, you can skip this procedure. However, if you get an error message indicating that the certificate could not be trusted, you will need to add the root certificate for the trusted authority. Contact your commercial root CA for more information.
  1. Copy the root CA and the Intermediate Certificate (if present) to a temp folder c:\temp or /tmp.
  2. Navigate to C:\temp\desktop-packages\<package-name>\jre\bin and run the following commands:
    On Windows:
    keytool -importcert -trustcacerts -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit -file c:\temp\root_cert.pem -alias company_root_ca

keytool -importcert -trustcacerts -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit -file c:\temp\intermediate_cert.pem -alias company_intermediate_ca
    Linux:
    keytool -importcert -trustcacerts -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit -file /tmp/root_cert.pem -alias company_root_ca

keytool -importcert -trustcacerts -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit -file /tmp/intermediate_cert.pem -alias company_intermediate_ca
    Information about the certificate is provided and the following message is displayed:
    Trust this certificate? [no]:
  3. Enter yes.
    The certificate is added to the keystore.
