Keytool / inofficial cert

Newbie & Debugging Questions
#1

I’ve followed this tutorial: http://www.captain.at/programming/java/ before and have gotten everything to work completely flawlessly.

However right now when I walk through the steps again I get this:

C:\Documents and Settings\scott hoeppner>keytool -genkey -keyalg rsa -alias lith
os
Enter keystore password:
keytool error: java.io.IOException: Keystore was tampered with, or password was
incorrect

I’ve tried it with alias’s that I know I’ve never used, I’ve tried a handful of other ways and I still get the same error.

#2

Last time I worked with keystores I had a strange issue because of blanks in the directory name… don’t know if this is a problem here or a strange thing that only appeared on my machine… but it’s easy to test…

#3

Tried with root directory and got the same thing.
