I'm writing a SOAP client application on Ubuntu using OpenSSL and C++. I am having trouble getting my code to validate the server certificate even though I know has a valid certificate.
Just to make sure I would like to check that it's the case and apparently PEM files are used to list valid certificates.
Can anyone tell me where these files reside on my Ubuntu 12.04 installation? I have the ca-certificates package installed on my machine, so these files must be there somewhere?
Best Answer
So if you have installed
ca-certificates
you can easily find out where the files are. Open a terminal and enterSo you'll see that all certificates are in
/usr/share/ca-certificates
. However the default location for certificates is/etc/ssl/certs
. You might find additional certificates there.
