SSL error: Public keys in reply and keystore don't match

[Madhura sarwade]

Hi Folks,

I am trying SSL implementation using apache tomcat.

There are 3 certificates. root.crt, intermediate.crt and CA.crt

I have imported root and intermediate certificates using following commands:

keytool -import -alias rootCA -keystore /jira/jira-home-7.12.1/jira.jks -trustcacerts -file root.crt

keytool -import -alias intermediateCA -keystore /jira/jira-home-7.12.1/jira.jks -trustcacerts -file intermediate.crt

When third certificate is imported using command:

keytool -import -alias jira -keystore /jira/jira-home-7.12.1/jira.jks -file CA.crt

An error is thrown as:

Public keys in reply and keystore don't match

How can I resolve the issue. It needs certificate to be added in the truststore.

I have tried with a command :

keytool -import -keystore /jira/jira-installation-7.12.1/jre/lib/security/cacerts -file root.crt -alias rootCA

but it didn't help.

How did you solve this ? @Madhura sarwade

Hi Madhura, 

I understand that you want setup SSL to your Jira instance, the error Public keys in reply and keystore don't match is caused by generating a certificate with a different key pair. With that in mind, you need to generate it again but using the same original key pair to avoid this error. 

On the page Running Jira over SSL or HTTPS, you can follow all necessary steps to accomplish that.
