I saw this. The rubber ducky effect. This keystore is testing me. Any tips on key store, AI and google arn't helpful.

This didnt work
```auto
openssl pkcs12 -export -out keystore.p12 -inkey /home/administrator/Documents/ca3/server.key.pem -in /home/administrator/Documents/ca3/server.cert.pem
1311 cp ll
1312 ls
1313 ll
1314 keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore keystore.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -destkeystore keystore.jks -deststoretype JKS
1315 ../jdk/bin/keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore keystore.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -destkeystore keystore.jks -deststoretype JKS
1316 ll
1317 ../jdk/bin/keytool -importcert -file /home/administrator/Documents/ca3/ca.cert.pem -alias ca_cert -keystore truststore.jks -storepass password
1318 ll
1319 nano test.yml
1320 sudo ../bin/logstash -f /home/administrator/elk/logstash-8.7.1/config/test.yml --log.level debug

So in short i got it to work. I was using a server and client extention of my own desgin. in the end i just reused the apiwebserver.cert.pem; importing it into the key store.
The working http\_poller pipeline was this.
```auto
input {
http_poller {
urls => {
myurl => "https://www.webserver.co.uk:8000/random_person"
}
truststore => "/home/administrator/elk/logstash-8.7.1/config/test.jks"
truststore_password => "password"
schedule => { every => "10s"}
}
}
output {
stdout {
codec => rubydebug
}
}
```
and i imported the server cert with this
```auto
keytool -import -alias test -file server_cert.pem -keystore test.jks -storetype jks
```
Stay tuned for a better explination.
