    Hi,

     

    You need to create or copy the keystore to the Linux system where you are running the VirtServer. Then you need to update the VirtServer configuration file (<installation-dir>/bin/virt-server.yml). In the config file you need to un-comment the virtSSL section and update the keystore information according to your setting. 

     

    # SSL configuration for virts
#virtSSL:
    #virtKeystorePath: /path/.keystore  
    #virtKeystorePassword: keystoreSecret
    #virtKeyPassword: keySecret
    #virtTrustStorePath: /path/.keystore
    #virtTrustStorePassword: trustStoreSecret

     

    Here you can find more details about VirtServer configuration http://readyapi.smartbear.com/virtserver/reference/settings.

    Dear Shadid,

     

    I've Setup the config file as you suggested. However running the Virt on the remote Server Fails with error:

     

    Unable to start Virt REST Virt 1: {"error":"com.smartbear.servicev.core.model.SvpException: keystore for ssl is not configured"}

     

    Do you have any idea? I've already double checked the keytore's location and Password

     

    Regards

      Dear Dominik,

       

      Can you paste part of the config where you have virtSSL (without the passwords)?
