Java has build-in support for work with pkcs#12 keystore work with this containers doesn t much differ than standart jks keystore from question How to use certificates from a java PKCS#12 keystore for encrypting and decrypting files? |
|
Instead you can support more than the jks and try the default keystore type and if the default keystore type fails try the #pkcs12 from question Java convert pfx to a format that can be imported into default keystore |
|
Since jks is not supported on android i made a copy of the keystore and renamed the extension to .bks on the new one;then i used a program called keystore explorer to convert the keystore.bks to bks-v1 format so it works on android from question SSL Client-Server with self signed certificate imported at runtime fails on handshake |

In this default implementation the jks format is better suited for a single keystore that is to handle both trusted entries and key entries in the same container from question Java KeyStore-Handling of PKCS12 |

It could possibly be that we didn t build our jks keystore truststores correctly more on how we built these files below from question Cassandra node to node encryption throws unable to gossip with peers exception |
