Here's a script that will fully automate the generation of the JKS keystore for Solr as well:
https://gist.github.com/kamsar/c3c8322c1ec40eac64c7dd546e5124de
# Usage:
# This script is designed to be run after you have Solr running locally without SSL
# It will generate a trusted, self-signed certificate for LOCAL DEV (this is useless for production)
# Notes: The keystore must be under server/etc on Solr root, and MUST be named solr-ssl.keystore.jks
# The cert will be added to locally trusted certs, so no security warnings in browsers
# You must still reconfigure Solr to use the keystore and restart it after running this script
#
# THIS SCRIPT REQUIRES WINDOWS 10 (for the SSL trust)

.\solrssl.ps1 -KeystoreFile C:\Solr\apache-solr\server\etc\solr-ssl.keystore.jks
Then the actual ps1 script:
param(
[string]$KeystoreFile = 'solr-ssl.keystore.jks',
[string]$KeystorePassword = 'secret',
[string]$SolrDomain = 'localhost',
[switch]$Clobber
)
$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'
### PARAM VALIDATION
if($KeystorePassword -ne 'secret') {
Write-Error 'The keystore password must be "secret", because Solr apparently ignores the parameter'
}
if((Test-Path $KeystoreFile)) {
if($Clobber) {
Write-Host "Removing $KeystoreFile..."
Remove-Item $KeystoreFile
} else {
$KeystorePath = Resolve-Path $KeystoreFile
Write-Error "Keystore file $KeystorePath already existed. To regenerate it, pass -Clobber."
}
}
$P12Path = [IO.Path]::ChangeExtension($KeystoreFile, 'p12')
if((Test-Path $P12Path)) {
if($Clobber) {
Write-Host "Removing $P12Path..."
Remove-Item $P12Path
} else {
$P12Path = Resolve-Path $P12Path
Write-Error "Keystore file $P12Path already existed. To regenerate it, pass -Clobber."
}
}
try {
$keytool = (Get-Command 'keytool.exe').Source
} catch {
$keytool = Read-Host "keytool.exe not on path. Enter path to keytool (found in JRE bin folder)"
if([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($keytool) -or -not (Test-Path $keytool)) {
Write-Error "Keytool path was invalid."
}
}
