How to load a keystore, which is inside the resource folder (maven)?

java, keystore, maven, resources, truststore

Solution

Strange, it works now...

I had

Properties systemProps = System.getProperties();
systemProps.put( "javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "/truststore.jks");
systemProps.put( "javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "changeit");
System.setProperties(systemProps);

and change the second line to

systemProps.put( "javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "src/main/resources/truststore.jks");

Anyone knows why? Is this solution ok?

Problem

I have a custom SSL factory, where I load my own truststore. Now when I put the truststore.jks file into the project root folder, it works with the following line: ``` ks.load(new FileInputStream("/truststore.jks", passphrase); ``` But I want my truststore inside my resource folder, which was built with maven where the path is src/main/resources. Then I do and it doesn't work with the following line: ``` ks.load(this.getClass().getResourcesAsStream("/truststore.jks"), passphrase); ``` Though the input stream exists. I checked it. It only fails when I do ks.load(...). The exception that I get is: ``` java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty ``` Why is that? Regards, Dave
