Import Certificates for Java Web Start

If you want to avoid an untrusted certificate prompt during Java Web Start (JavaWS) operation, you can import the certificates into the local machine store before you launch Graphical Process Modeler (GPM).

About this task

This can reduce user confusion in the event that the SSL certificate associated with the secure HTTP Server Adapter or base SSL port is not trusted by the user's local machine.

To import trusted root certificates into JavaWS:

Procedure

  1. Save the trusted root certificate to a file on your local computer.
  2. Open the Java Control Panel on your local computer (javaws.exe under jre\bin).
  3. Open the Security tab and click Certificates.
  4. Click Import to browse to a trusted root certificate and select it.
  5. Click Open to import the new trusted root certificate.
    After the trusted root certificate is checked in, JavaWS uses it for trust verification during SSL handshake.
