Below text taken from IBM support site and is a perfect resolution for the steps.<\/p>\n<p>1.Make sure the plugin-key.sth file exists in the actual directory listed in the preceding example. By default this plugin-key.sth file is created when SSL is enabled within WebSphere Application Server. If the Web server is remote, this file and the plugin-key.kdb file must be copied from the Application Server machine to the remote Web server machine in the directory specified in the preceding example.<\/p>\n<p>2. If the file does exist, make sure the user account which the Web server is running under has read\/execute permission to the plugin-key.sth. Also, it is possible that the plugin-key.sth file is corrupt or does not correspond with the existing plugin-key.kdb file. As a result, you must create a new plugin-key.sth file from the existing plugin-key.kdb file.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use the iKeyman GUI included with the IBM HTTP Server to open the plugin-key.kdb file. The password to open this file by default is WebAS (case sensitive).<\/li>\n<li>After you have the plugin-key.kdb file open, from the menu select: Key Database file &gt; stash password. This creates a new plugin-key.sth file.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>3. It is essential if there is an RDB (for example, <tt>plugin-key.rdb<\/tt>) and CRL (for example, <tt>plugin-key.crl<\/tt>) in the same directory as the <tt>plugin-key.kdb<\/tt> and <tt>plugin-key.sth<\/tt> file, remove these files from the directory.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>gsk error 408 (GSK_ERROR_BAD_KEYFILE_PASSWORD) pops up in Plugin log file.
