Before you begin, you must have the following:

• a trusted server Java keystore.
  If you do not have a Trusted Server Java keystore, click here for instructions on how to create a trusted server Java keystore.

For this example, it is assumed that:

• The Java trusted server keystore has been created and is named serverTrustStore.jks.
• The directory path to the trusted server keystore is /usr/local/.
• The password for the trusted server keystore is changeit.
• Eclipse has been installed at /usr/local/eclipse.

You must make name and path adjustments to the above assumptions to conform to your configuration.

1. cd to /usr/local/eclipse and edit the eclipse.ini file.  The contents of the eclipse.ini file should be similar to the following:
   

   Code Block
   -showsplash org.eclipse.platform --launcher.XXMaxPermSize 256M -framework plugins\org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.3.R34x_v20081215-1030.jar -vmargs -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5 -Xms40m -Xmx512m

   
   
2. add the following 2 lines to the -vmargs as shown below.
   

   indent
   1 1
   -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/usr/local/serverTrustStore.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword="changeit"

   
   

   Code Block
   -showsplash org.eclipse.platform --launcher.XXMaxPermSize 256M -framework plugins\org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.3.R34x_v20081215-1030.jar -vmargs -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5 -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/usr/local/serverTrustStore.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword="changeit" -Xms40m -Xmx512m

   indent
   1 1
   Change the *trustStorePassword* from {color:green}*changeit*{color} to the password of your trust store.

   
   
3. Save the above changes and restart the Eclipse IDE.
