I've heard keytool is pretty finicky on format, did you double-check your command?  Also did you specify an alias for the key?

Hi,

I've created a self-signed certificate with Mercury (4.72) for the IMAP module. Now I want to import the certificate into my Java VM so I can develop my custom IMAP client application (the Java VM needs to know the certificate, otherwise it won't let me connect to the "untrusted" server)

I tried to directly import the created cert by using the Java keystore tool but I end up with an error message telling me that the cert Mercury created is not compatible (not a x.509 cert)

I haven't found any information on how to convert the cert file created by Mercury to something suitable for Java. Any clues?
