"Certificate has expired" in log by starting Glassfish 3.1.2

Question

Today by starting my glassfish I saw an error message about a certificate that has expired...

Can someone help me and say what I can/must do?

Here the message:

Answer 1

The certificate of GTE Cybertrust Solutions inc has expired this night.

As stated here: https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2563077 the alias of this certificate is: gtecybertrust5ca

As long as it is a standalone Glassfish you can follow this guide: https://blogs.oracle.com/ramkri/entry/sec5054_certificate_has_expired_error

I have the same problem, but with the embedded Glassfish 3.1.2.2 used by Arquillian. I don't know where the certificates are stored in this embedded setup. Any hints are appreciated.

UPDATE for an embedded setup: To fix the certificate while using an embedded glassfish, just copy a fixed version of the cacerts.jks from the standalone glassfish installation <glassfish_home>/glassfish/domains/<your_domain>/config/cacerts.jks to your resource directory. E.g. when using maven and arquillian, just copy the file to <projectRoot>/src/test/resources/config/cacerts.jks. The embedded glassfish will pick up this configuration!
