Oracle OAM 11.1.2.3 Error Opening of file based keystore

 

When starting an Oracle OAM 11.1.2.3 Admin Server, I ran into the following error.

Error message: JPS-06514: Opening of file based keystore failed.

(See full error message at the bottom)

This domain had been running for weeks, so it was a spontaneous error, which occurred after the AIX machine running the OAM stack had crashed.

To resolve this issue, I removed the $DOMAIN_HOME/AdminServer direcory and started the AdminServer again. Had to create a new boot.properties file, but at least the problem was solved!
