Path has type Object rather than String - ssl

Question

I am implementing SSL connection for my web application. I have keystore which i am passing while running SBT. But i am getting error "PATH HAS TYPE OBJECT RATHER THAN STRING".
This way i am passing keystore :-
run -Dhttp.port=disabled -Dhttps.port=9448 -Dhttps.keyStore.path="certs\example.com.jks" -Dhttps.keyStore.type=JKS -Dhttps.keyStore.password=changeit
I am getting below error :-
error] p.c.s.AkkaHttpServer - Cannot load SSL context

Please tell me if anything wrong in the above.

Answer 1

The Exception suggest, that one of your path is wrong.
Here is the code, the exception happened:
def createSSLContext(applicationProvider: ApplicationProvider): SSLContext = {
val httpsConfig = serverConfig.configuration.underlying.getConfig("play.server.https")
val keyStoreConfig = httpsConfig.getConfig("keyStore")
val keyManagerFactory: KeyManagerFactory = if (keyStoreConfig.hasPath("path")) {
val path = keyStoreConfig.getString("path") // HERE EXACTLY
As you can see it expects a path, called: play.server.https.keyStore.path.
It seems that you have configured that path wrong: Check your application.conf.
Or adjust your run command.
