How Can I Add A Ssl Certificate On My Apk?

I am trying to make a connection to an https url. The problem that I am facing is that when I am trying to connect via WebView I am getting the following error: Failed to validate

Solution 1:

It will be very easy to setup & learn SSL if you go with a local server.

1 ] Setup a Server (For Eg; TomCat) for SSL communications (https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/ssl-howto.html).

2 ] Write a simple Web-Service (http://www.radcortez.com/ssl-tls-rest-server-client-with-spring-and-tomee/).

3 ] Prepare a self -signed certificate using any one of the tool (Keytool , OpenSSL etc)

4 ] It is adviced to use commands to create keystore,certificate etc.But for the lazy people there is a GUI based program :) (http://keystore-explorer.org/downloads.html)

5 ] Now ,It's time to pin SSL certificate to Android Applications.Add your aliasname.cer (It can export from s/w mentioned in point [4])

6 ] Check host name programatically (https://infinum.co/the-capsized-eight/securing-mobile-banking-on-android-with-ssl-certificate-pinning).

7 ] Create a custom Trust Manager,So that we , can omit android system's default Trust Manager (https://github.com/ikust/hello-pinnedcerts)
