PFX to JKS keytool conversion: Alias <*> does not exist
I'm trying to convert x.PFX file to x.JKS file using keytool but I am getting following error:
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Alias <2> does not exist
Actions that preceded this error are:
Listing x.PFX file content (just to read alias name):
keytool -v -list -storetype pkcs12 -keystore x.pfx
Enter keystore password: x
Keystore type: PKCS12
Keystore provider: SunJSSE
Your keystore contains 1 entry
Alias name: 2
Creation date: 11-nov-2012
Entry type: PrivateKeyEntry
Certificate chain length: 3

Converting x.PFX file into x.JKS file using "2" as source alias name
keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore x.pfx -srcstoretype pkcs12 -srcalias 2 -destkeystore x.jks -deststoretype jks -destalias xyz
Enter destination keystore password: y
Re-enter new password: y
Enter source keystore password: x
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Alias <2> does not exist
I am not sure what I am doing wrong? PFX file contain only one entry with just one alias (2). I also tried using these srcalias values: 2, "2", " 2". Is there any other way to convert PFX into JKS using keytool without knowing source alias name?
Answer
I had the exact same problem. I've solved using '1' instead of 2. Don't know why but it worked.
