How to view the contents of a .pem certificate?
KeytoolKeytool Problem Overview
I am using Java keytool
. I have exported a self-signed .pem
certificate from my keystore. Is there a command to view the certificate details directly from the .pem
file (not of the certificate in the keystore)?
Keytool Solutions
Solution 1 - Keytool
An alternative to using keytool
, you can use the command
openssl x509 -in certificate.pem -text
This should work for any x509 .pem file provided you have openssl
installed.
Solution 2 - Keytool
Use the -printcert
command like this:
keytool -printcert -file certificate.pem
