Answer 1

as mentioned above either you import the certificate

1. Start command prompt in directory which you have placed certificate (e.g. XYZ.cer)
2. Run following command just change the active jre path (and please notice ~ symbol )

3. keytool -import -alias XYZ -file XYZ.cer -keystore C:/Program~1/Java/jdk1.6.0_23/jre/lib/security/cacerts -storepass changeit

                              OR
