Hi Thomas,
 
I am not using GF 3.1, so am unable to address your questions, as I am not familiar with the GF 3.x UI and commands. 
 
In reference to GF 2.1.1, a self-signed cert is generated when GF is built, and this is populated in /domains/domain1/config in the keystore.jks and cacerts.jks keystores.  When I have generated a new keypair and had the cert signed, I import root, intermediary and signed certs into keystore.jks; and  I import root and intermediary certs into cacerts.jks.
 
Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
 
Derek

Hi,

thank you for your answer.
 
I have two things to clarify.
 
First I went one step back and disabled-secure-admin with
 
asadmin --secure=true disable-secure-admin
 
The command was successful.
I stopped and restarted GF without the --secure=true option - no exceptions in server.log.
In the domain.xml I saw that the security-enabled="true" property is not longer active.
 
<protocol  name="admin-listener">
...
 
Then accessed the admin-gui with http://localhost:4848.
I only got an empty page and no action in the server.log.
I then called https://localhost:4848
                  ^
and I got the "SSLOutputWriter: CLOSED" exception again.
The admin-gui started to load in the browser.
 
I have now no neither a secure admin-gui nor a unsecure admin-gui.
Why do I have no access via http when I successfully called "asadmin --secure=true disable-secure-admin"?
 
Second point is regarding your tip.
On this host I have only one GF installation.
Because I played with SSL-access for our application I created a self-signed certificate
and finally got GF running on port 8181 with https. However finally we decided not to
use SSL in GF for application but to use a apache for this purpose.
(We can now use standard SSL-port 443 for that.)
We have: client --> apache(https) --> GF(localhost:8080)
But this has nothing to do with SSL for admin-gui.
The https for admin-gui I simple configured via the gui and I did not create any certificate manually.
 
What happens in the background when SSL is enabled for the admin-gui?
Which certificates are used?

Thomas
