Discontinued Root Certificate
Hi All,
In my EBS environment I have a Symantec code signing cert. When displaying the certificate chain - it has 4 entries.
1. My Code Signing Cert
2. Symantec Intermediate Cert
3. Verisign Intermediate Cert
4. Verisign Root Cert
As my certificate expires next week, I got a renewal done and tested the change / resigning of the jar files. However, when complete this only shows two entries in the certificate chain.
1. My Code Signing Cert
2. Symantec Intermediate Cert
It's important to note that the Symantec intermediate Cert is the same in both instances - same name, serial # and SHA1 hash etc.
I double checked everything to try and figure out why the chain was not the same - but all the intermediate and root certs are in the cacerts file and I tried loading them all into adkeystore, both individually and combined in one file. Nothing would bring the additional two entries into the chain. It didn't seem to matter though - I set my java security settings to very high, and ticked all the "Check online for revocation" etc to try and force a stop if the chain couldn't be validated - but my application always started ok.
