Trust store

In order for the webPDF server to access an external resource or URL that works with a self-signed SSL certificate, the certificate must be imported into the server’s trust store. This will be the case, for example, when there is external content in mail documents that are being converted and this content needs to be retrieved from a server that works with a “self-signed” certificate.

In order for the server to trust the certificates, you will need to import them into a trust store (keystore file) and configure the latter on the server. The easiest way to configure the trust store is in the Admin Portal, with the "Truststore" function.

Alternatively, you can also enter the trust store directly in the server.xml configuration file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>  
<server xmlns="http://schema.webpdf.de/1.0/configuration/server">  
   <!-- ... -->  
   <truststore file="" password=""/>  
   <!-- ... -->  
</server>

Enter the file in file. As of this writing, only keystore files in JKS format are supported for the trust store. You can create this type of key store with the "Keystore Explorer" tool, for example.

Enter the password for the keystore file in password.

In order for the trust store to be enabled, you will have to restart the server.
