How to import and use certificate in SDK?

[#1]

Our company administrator purchased a certificate (.cer file) from Geotrust and I am trying to get our application signed using the Samsung SDK 1.2.2. After I import the certificate and attempt to sign the application I get an err 'The keystore does not conatin a private key associated with the alias'.

Any advice? Thanks.

Hi domenic,

Thanks for your post!

I would reach out to GeoTrust and have their support team help you thru this.

GeoTrust support indicated that ...

Clifford C:  If you purchased it through AT&T, you will have to contact them for support.

Clifford C:  Yes, we issue the certificate associated to their signing services as well

Clifford C:  But support will have to come from AT&T

Clifford C:  I do apologize but that would not be correct because AT&T has specific processes with their signing procedures.

Clifford C:  Unfortunately they do not disclose that information to us and only they can support their signing services.

Hi Domenic,

To my knowledge, AT&T doesn't sell Geotrust certificates.

We need to get more info on who you purchased the cert from...

thanks

Some success. We determined that my administrator could not just send me the .cer and have me import it and use it in my SDK. Instead I sent the jad/jar over to the administrator and had him sign the application by importing the .cer he created within his SDK. That apparently worked as the application gets signed successfully.

However once I try to install the application I get a 'Certificate Error'. Another post in this Community hints on GeoTrust certificates causing devices like the Samsung Rugby II and Strive to reboot. I, too am using the Rugby II. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi Domenic,

Thru the help of Geotrust/AT&T support, I believe that your issue(s) with signing has been resolved.

thanks!
