Generate CSR - Weblogic 8.1
To Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) perform the following steps:
Step 1: Generate a Keystore and Private Key
- Create a certificate keystore and private key by executing the following keytool command:Â
Note: The keytool utility is located in your JDK’s “\bin†directory
C:\bea\jdk\bin\keytool -genkey -alias -keyalg RSA -keystore
- Specify a password. The default value will be "changeit".
Step 2: Generate a CSR
- The CSR is then created using the following command:
C:\bea\jdk\bin\keytool -certreq -keyalg RSA -alias -file certreq.csr -keystore
Note: When generating a CSR, enter the domain of your website (i.e. www.mysite.com) in the "first- and lastname" field.
- To copy and paste the file certreq.csr into the enrollment form, open the file in a text editor that does not add extra characters (Notepad is recommended).
