Enabling publishing to YouTube with SkyVault (Solr enabled) deployed on WebLogic

In a SkyVault environment deployed on WebLogic and with the Solr search engine enabled, to enable the publish to YouTube feature requires additional steps.
These steps use three certificates, which will be added to the standard Java truststore:
  • Google certificate
  • ssl.repo.crt certificate
  • ssl.repo.client.crt certificate
  1. Download the Google certificate.
    1. Download OpenSSL (for Windows) from OpenSSL.

      Note: OpenSSL is pre-installed in the Linux and OS operating systems. To verify that you have OpenSSL installed, run the openssl version command.
    2. Run the following command:

      openssl s_client -connect docs.google.com:443 -showcerts

      The PEM-format certificate outputs are displayed.

    3. From the output displayed, copy the certificate for the wildcard *.google.com domain to your clipboard including the ----BEGIN CERTIFICATE---- and ----END CERTIFICATE---- parts.

      Note: Several certificates are displayed. The certificate you need to copy is at the beginning, and it has the value CN=*.google.com.
    4. Paste the PEM-format certificate text into a new file.

      For example, youtube.com.pem.

    5. Convert the PEM-format certificate into DER format using OpenSSL. For example:

      openssl x509 -in youtube.com.pem -out youtube.com.der -outform DER.

  2. Generate the ssl.repo.crt and the ssl.repo.client.crt certificates using the instructions in Generating Secure Keys for Solr Communication.
  3. Ensure that all the certificates exist in the <JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/security> directory.
  4. Add the certificates to your standard Java truststore using the Keytool Java utility. 

    keytool -importcert -noprompt -alias ssl.repo -file ssl.repo.crt -keystore cacerts -storepass changeit
keytool -importcert -noprompt -alias ssl.repo -file ssl.repo.client.crt -keystore cacerts -storepass changeit
keytool -importcert -noprompt -alias ssl.repo -file youtube.der -keystore cacerts -storepass changeit

    Note: The default password for the keystore is changeit. You do NOT need to change the default password.
  5. Follow the instructions in Configuring Solr with SkyVault running on WebLogic to configure the WebLogic application server.

    Note:
    • At Step 3(d) ensure that you choose the Custom Identity and Java Standard Trust keystore.
    • At Step 3(f) ensure that you enter a valid Java Standard Trust Keystore Passphrase as the Custom Identity Keystore Passphrase.
  6. Restart the server.
