Describe the bug (actual behavior)

Hello,
i've added to the config file this:

server:
    ssl: 
     trust-store: file:/etc/certs/mytruststore.jks
     trust-store-password: mypassword

and mounted a volume with the truststore i'm still unable to start the docker image.

The related error is:

The certificate added to the truststore is a self signed certificate, the same used to add https connection to KeyCloak.

How can i provide more insights?

Thanks,
Alessio

As i test I tried to import the self signed certificate directly into the main trust store, loggin as root into the running docker:

docker exec -u root -ti kafbat-ui sh

and then:

keytool -import -alias mydomain -file /etc/certs/mydomain.crt -keystore /usr/lib/jvm/default-jvm/lib/security/cacerts

This way everything works fine, so the cert itself seems correct.

Also as a test changing the custom truststore location or password, using non valid locations/password the startup fails, so the truststore is located and validated at startup.
