Issue
I have this certificates / files in order to enable SSL for my application:
I found out that this properties are needed for Spring Boot to enable HTTPS:
server.port=8089
server.ssl.enabled=true
server.ssl.key-store=src/main/resources/keystore.p12
server.ssl.key-store-password=****
server.ssl.keyStoreType=PKCS12
server.ssl.keyAlias=tomcat
but this does not work. My question now would be what do I have to do in order to get it work? https://abc.lehr.co.at should be the URL.
[EDIT]
I have created my own keystore - with this I get the following exception:
java.io.IOException: Alias name tomcat does not identify a key entry
at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.jsse.JSSESocketFactory.getKeyManagers(JSSESocketFactory.java:596)

My keystore looks like this:
Actually I don't know what to import into keystore for embedded tomcat (Spring Boot).
Solution
To enable SSL, you must provide a private key, and not a trusted certificate.
In your keystore, 'tomcat' should be listed as an alias for a privatekeyentry and not a trustedcertentry.
