Hey Vikas,

From Alfresco 6.2 the Keystore configurations has been changed a little , so your config in global properties should be,

dir.keystore=/alfresco/acs/keystore/metadata-keystore

Java start args for tomcat

-Dencryption.keystore.type=JCEKS
-Dencryption.cipherAlgorithm=DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding
-Dencryption.keyAlgorithm=DESede
-Dencryption.keystore.location=/alfresco/acs/keystore/metadata-keystore/keystore
-Dmetadata-keystore.password=XXXXXXX
-Dmetadata-keystore.aliases=metadata
-Dmetadata-keystore.metadata.password=XXXXXXXX
-Dmetadata-keystore.metadata.algorithm=DESede

Hi

I think you are mixing concepts here: that "keystore" is not for SSL / mTLS configuration, but it's for encryption. As you're not using encryption (Community doesn't have this feature) you can use default "keystore" for that.

Maybe this post can help.

Cheers.
