Tomcat8.5配置https启动报空指针错误

tomcat8.5版本和tomcat8.0有了很大的区别，默认的server.xml中https的配置方式也有了变化：

<Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" SSLEnabled="true" secure="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8" useBodyEncodingForURI="true">
    <SSLHostConfig certificateVerification="optional">
        <Certificate certificateKeystoreFile="${catalina.home}/bin/mykey.jks" certificateKeystorePassword="mypassword"/>
    </SSLHostConfig>
</Connector>

然而当启动的时候，却报出了空指针错误：

查源代码发现，tomcat8.5代码中要求有别名，如果没有配置，默认使用“tomcat”作为别名。显然，我们的证书别名不会是tomcat。

我们可以使用如下命令查看证书的别名：

keytool -list  -v -keystore xxxx.keystore -storepass 密码

比如：

D:\tomcat\tomcat858s\bin>keytool -list -v -keystore mykey.jks -storepass mypassword

密钥库类型: JKS

         签名算法名称: SHA256withRSA

...

可以看到，此证书的别名是“1”，我们就可以在server.xml中配置别名了：

<Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" SSLEnabled="true" secure="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8" useBodyEncodingForURI="true">
    <SSLHostConfig certificateVerification="optional">
        <Certificate certificateKeystoreFile="${catalina.home}/bin/mykey.jks" certificateKeystorePassword="mypassword" certificateKeyAlias="1"/>
    </SSLHostConfig>
</Connector>

添加certificateKeyAlias="1"

然后再次启动tomcat，空指针报错就消失了。
