'keytool' is not recognised

kammaje_cis — Tue, 27 May 2014 16:16:22 GMT

Hi friends,

I am trying to follow the blog . As part of that, I am trying to add the certificate to smp_keystore and hence I need to execute following command.

C:\SAP\MobilePlatform3\Server\configuration>keytool -import -v -alias sapgatewaycert -keystore smp_keystore.jks -storepasspassword -file C:\Users\Krishna\Desktop\es1_smp.cer

But I get an error saying

'keytool' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

I also see that there is no 'keytool' executable file under configuration directory.

What am I missing?

thanks

Krishna

hi..

Keytool will be under you C:\ProgramFiles\Java\JRE\bin folder..give that path in the command window and run..so your command should be something like

C:\SAP\MobilePlatform3\Server\configuration>C:\ProgramFiles\Java\JRE\bin\keytool -import -v -alias sapgatewaycert -keystore smp_keystore.jks -storepasspassword -file C:\Users\Krishna\Desktop\es1_smp.cer

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Rakhit,

I am close, but now I get error

'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file."

May be some problem with the syntax.

I tried as below.

C:\SAP\MobilePlatform3\Server\configuration>C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_55\bi

n\keytool -import -v -alias sapgatewaycert -keystore smp_keystore.jks -storepass

password -file C:\Users\Krishna\Desktop\es1_smp.cer

Krishna,

Use the path to the keytool file from the explorer tab..

I assume you found the key tool file under the folder..Probably if you are using a 64bit machine it will be under the ProgramFiles(x64) folder..

Thanks,

Best Regards,

Not sure if you have resolved this issue. Make sure you set the enviromental variables correctly.

You can go with JDK latest version or JRE 7

JAVA_HOME : C:\Program Files\Java\jre7

PATH: %JAVA_HOME%\bin
