ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt not generated

I solved it by removing ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt, ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.usr and proxyserver.jks from the bin directory of JMeter.

Need to remove proxyserver.jks to create new certificate if you have removed ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.crt, ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA.usr from bin . I did same too and got the certificate.


You are probably using Java 6 , in this case no ApacheJMeterTemporaryRootCA is generated.

To know if you are using Java 7: - If HTTPS Domains is read only you are in JDK6 - If HTTPS Domains is writable you are using JDK7

Ensure you follow this:

I was having the same issue - the root certificate was not found under the jmeter/bin directory. It was created in this path

C:\VTRoot\HarddiskVolume3\Users{UserName}\Downloads\apache-jmeter-2.12\bin

I had to import it to firefox
