Error description

• The greenhat.cer certificate file which ships with RIT HTTP
  Proxy is only 1024 bits. Such certificates are not suitable for
  loading on IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 8 or the
  latest patch of WAS 8.  This prevents recording or visualizing
  requests on WAS 8 and patched WAS 7 servers.

  * requests on WAS 8 and patched WAS 7 servers.                 *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * WAS can require a 2048bit certificate but the version of RIT *
  * in which the problem was seen does not come with a 2048bit   *
  * certificate. Hence an error occurs.                          *
