For the SSL certificate, Java doesn’t understand PEM format, and it supports JKS or PKCS#12. This article shows you how to use OpenSSL to convert the existing pem file and its private key into a single PKCS#12 or .p12 file.
Solution
Convert cert.pem and private key key.pem into a single cert.p12 file, key in the key-store-password manually for the .p12 file.
Terminal
$ openssl pkcs12 -export -out cert.p12 -in cert.pem -inkey key.pem
Enter Export Password:
Verifying - Enter Export Password:
No password for cert.p12
Terminal
$ openssl pkcs12 -export -out cert.p12 -in cert.pem -inkey key.pem -passout pass: -nokeys
Password 123 for cert.p12
Terminal
$ openssl pkcs12 -export -out cert.p12 -in cert.pem -inkey key.pem -passout pass: 123
More helps.
Terminal
$ openssl pkcs12 --help
pem files are OK, but I recive a error
Could not display example.com.p12
Reason: Could not parse invalid or corrupted data.
