Initializing help system before first use

Create the SSL Certificate KeyStore
Note These instructions use the term <INSTALLDATADIR> to describe the path to your installation directory. This path will normally be C:\ProgramData\FICO\Xpress Insight\Server\ unless otherwise set by your IT department.
  1. Ensure that your files for the SSL certificate certificate.pem and private key privatekey.pem are saved in <INSTALLDATADIR>\config.
  2. Convert the PEM files into a temporary PKCS12 key store file. You will be prompted to supply a password for this new key store. 
    openssl pkcs12 -export -name insight-server-https -in certificate.pem -inkey privatekey.pem -out temp-keystore.p12
  3. Convert the PKCS12 key store file into a Java KeyStore file. You will be prompted to enter the password entered in the previous step, and to provide a password for the destination Java KeyStore. 
    keytool -importkeystore -destkeystore insight-keystore -srckeystore temp-keystore.p12 -srcstoretype pkcs12 -alias insight-server-https
  4. Remove the temporary PKCS12 key store file temp-keystore.p12.
    Note For testing purposes a self-signed certificate can be created with the following command, you will be prompted to provide a password for the KeyStore. Replace the hostname with the hostname of your Insight installation. 
    keytool -genkey -v -keystore insight-keystore -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 -alias insight-server-https -dname "cn=<hostname>, ou=Unknown, o=Unknown, c=Unknown"
