2022-06-27 09:24:34,160 4a0b-8ab5-fdba202ebb27 [WARN ] NOLOGIN/- NOUI [com.uc4.ecc.jetty.JettyServerLauncher] - Keystore not found. ssl not enabled.
Environment
Release : 21.0.2
Component : AWI / Jetty
Cause
The path to the keystore is not found because backslashes are not correctly interpreted
Resolution
With the following configuration using the existing AE keystore, it works:
Solution 1
Using the same certificate used in ucsrv.ini (as an example):
KEYSTORE=keystore.p12
KEYSTOREPASSWORD=automic
KEYPASSWORD=automic
KEYALIAS=automic
Copy the AE Keystore keystore.p12 to the AWI config folder "C:\Automic\Automation.Platform\WebInterface\config"
Update <Jetty>\config\configuration.properties
Configuration.properties:
defaultHomeDashboard=WELCOME.DASHBOARD
parameter_login.enabled=true
http.port=8080
http.enabled=false
https.enabled=true
https.port=7443
https.keystore.filename=keystore.p12
https.keystore.password=automic
https.manager.password=automic
Solution 2
Leave the certificate in place but use backslashes to escape the backslashes:
Configuration.properties:
defaultHomeDashboard=WELCOME.DASHBOARD
parameter_login.enabled=true
http.port=8080
http.enabled=false
https.enabled=true
https.port=7443
https.keystore.filename= C:\\Automic\\Automation.Platform\\Automation.Engine\\bin\\keystore.p12
https.keystore.password=automic
https.manager.password=automic
Result
Restarted the awi service from service manager
