Hi,

I created a certificate using java keytool (JDK 1.4.2 )

No matter which proivder i use (IBMJCE or BouncyCastle to name a
couple)

I keep getting this error.

public X509Certificate getCertificate() {
try {

InputStream inStream = new FileInputStream(SERVER_KEYSTORE);
CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");

X509Certificate cert = (X509Certificate)
cf.generateCertificate(inStream);
inStream.close();
return cert;
}
catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}

java.security.cert.CertificateException: Unable to initialize,
java.io.IOException: DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=109, too
big.

Appreciate if somebody could point me to what is wrong out here.

Thanks,
