KeyStore file is not found in jar, although present in jar

Question

I set the Connector properties as

      LOGGER.debug("ksPath=>" + ksPath);
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("keystoreFile",ksPath);
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("keystorePass", keyStorePass);
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("clientAuth", "false");
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("sslProtocol", "TLS");
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("sslEnabledProtocols", tlsProtocols);
      httpsConnector.setAttribute("SSLEnabled", true);
      Connector defaultConnector = tomcat.getConnector();
      defaultConnector.setRedirectPort(port);

What I see in logs (when it runs)

ksPath=>jar:file:/shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar!/my.keystore

However, the deployment fails and I see logs as

SEVERE: Failed to load keystore type JKS with path /shn/lp/jar:file:/shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar!/my.keystore due to /shn/lp/jar:file:/shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar!/my.keystore (No such file or directory)

Observation

jar:file:/shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar!/my.keystore 

is different from

/shn/lp/jar:file:/shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar!my.keystore

the latter starts with /shn/lp/

However to assert, I see that the file is infact present in jar

jar -tvf /shn/lp/main-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar | grep my.keystore
  4704 Tue Jun 09 09:29:26 PDT 2015 my.keystore

What's up with it?

How do I resolve this issue?

Answer 1

Seems it does not understand the protocol, maybe because of the missing leading slash? Have you tried:

 String ksPath = this.getClass().getResource("/my.keystore").getFile();
