PFX cannot be opened in soapUI 4.5

I've always been able to open PFX files containing certificates and private keys using soapUI 2.5.1, 4.0.0 and 4.0.1. The PFX keystores are configured on the project view page under WS-Security Configurations in the Keystores tab.

If I open the project files in soapUI 4.5 (which work in older versions of soapUI) I get the following error message in the Status column: <error: java.io.IOException: Invalid keystore format>.
Trying to re-attach the PFX files to the projects via soapUI 4.5 makes no difference, I keep getting the same error.

The PFX files are created using OpenSSL (version OpenSSL-Win32_1.0.1h_Light) on Windows 7 x64.

It seems this is a bug in the latest version (4.5) of soapUI, because the PFX files work like expected in all other soapUI versions.

  • This was to be fixed in the nightly build 4.5.0.1 SNAPSHOT. But this still does not work correctly. The cert is accepted but any call made using this returns "encryption or decryption is invalid" This works in SOAP UI Pro 4.0 and 3.6.1 so the cert is valid. Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.
  • Our new license for Pro requires us to download and use the latest version, but the latest version does not support the pfx files, and we cannot go to a previous version due to the new license. Are there plans by SmartBear to fix this in the near future? Otherwise we are dead in the water. >:(

    The PFX files are working again in the (current) latest soapUI 4.5.1.

    Thanks for fixing this bug.
