If you configure a secure connection between the Metadata Manager web application and the Metadata Manager Service, you must configure mmcmd to use the truststore file. mmcmd uses the truststore file to validate the security certificates. mmcmd does not accept a security certificate that has errors.
To configure mmcmd to use the truststore file, edit the MMCmdConfig.properties file. Set the TrustStore.Path property to the path and file name of the truststore file.
If you do not configure a secure connection for the Metadata Manager web application, do not specify a truststore file. Leave the TrustStore.Path property in the MMCmdConfig.properties file empty.
