import / export cacerts from Windows to Linux
This is driving me crazy, hopefully someone can help
I need to move an application tha uses cacerts from Windows to Linux, so I thought that a simple export / import of the required certs would do the trick. No such luck.
Here is what I have so far.
On my Windows machine I can list the required certificate on the cacerts file as follows:
keytool -list -keystore cacerts
I can export the particular one I need with
keytool -export -file some.cer -alias some -keystore cacerts
I can view the newly created cert on my file some.cer with:
keytool -printcer -file some.cer
Now, when I go to import it onto a new cacerts file on Linux (that has some other keys)
keytool -import -file some.cer -alias some.cer -keystore cacerts
I get the following error message
keytool error: java.security.NoSuchAlgori
Any ideas?
Copying the cacerts file over the old one in Linux doesn't seem to work.

Have you got a higher SDK in Windows than Linux?

Actually at this stage I am even using the same keytool on Windows as a test!

I sorted the problem... I was using the wrong version of the jre, I was exporting on Windows using jre 1.3.0, and trying to import it back there as a test, and it looks like objects is right, there was no algorithm there. When I used the version 1.4 on my Windows machine, and subsequently in Linux it worked.
I am giving the points to objects... I should have tried harder!!

and what did i say in my comment? Saying the 'algorithm is not there' is merely repeating the error message. I explained the possible reason

Apologies CEHJ... I should have split the points!!!
You can always reopen the question ;-)
