How to create TrustStore file for Windchill Authentication in TW Navigate ?

Hi,

I want to configure Thingworx Navigate using Windchill Authentication . As per given in installation document , we need to generate two files Keystore.jks and TrustStore.jks. For generating keyStore.jks clear steps are given in installation document, but can not find clear steps to generateTrustStore.jks .Only one command is specified that need to be executed from command prompt. i.e.

keytool -import -alias testtrustStore -file server.cer -keystore TrustStore.jks -storetype JKS

but,

I get execution after execution as : FileNotFoundException : server.cer

where is server.cer file located ?

Document I referred is :

Hi @shindemayur ,

The truststore should consist of public part of Windchill and ThingWorx SSL certificate. Here in the command server.cer refers to public part of your ThingWorx certificate. You can change the command according to your certificate name.

Thanks @tbhosale for reply,

but I actually don't know the name of my Thingworx certificate. Where can I find it?

Hi @shindemayur ,

You can get the certificate from the keystore you have created for ThingWorx.

Are you done configuring ThingWorx for SSL? If yes, we need the certificate you used for configuring ThingWorx for SSL.

hi @tbhosale

I had followed the steps given in installation document on page 19. Using these steps I have generated to file

KeyStore.jks

testKeyStore.cer

So , is it "testKeyStore.cer" file , that I need to specify in the command ?

Or,

we need the certificate that is used for configuring Windchill for SSL ? Because, I want Windchill Authentication for thingworx Navigate, so I can use windchill user to login into thingworx.
