Problems using certificates from the Keystore

Im receiving a NullPointer Exception trying to set up a certificate from the project
Security Configurations > Keystores /Certificates options. First of all, I would like to know if is necessary to register all the certificates in Preferences > SSL Settings. I tried to do that Before with no results..
After that, I tried to set up a certificate from the Proyect Keystores / Certificates tag, using a
.p12 File but I got a NullPointerException so I cannot find out where would be the problem.

I ve tried it as well taking a certificate from the windows default repository (C:\Documents and Settings\windows user\Application Data\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\My\Certificates\) but when I use this kind I got a KeystoreException: Failed to extract any certificate or private keys - maybe bad password?  But Ive made sure it is the correct password.

    Finally I managed to see the certificate as "OK" exporting it with java keytool into a new .Keystore. But I'm getting the same error the error:
