I have an application that uses Coherence, and I now need to secure it. I found http://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1212/coherence/COHSG/wls_security.htm and followed the steps in section 6.2.1:

1) From the Summary of Coherence Clusters page, click a Coherence Cluster to configure its settings.
2) From the cluster's settings page, click the Security tab.
3) From the General tab, click the Security Framework Enabled option to enable the security framework.
4) Click Save.

When i next restart WebLogic, it fails horribly though, with the following error:

####<24-jun-2014 13:45:59 uur CEST> <Critical> <WebLogicServer> <PC0075> <AdminServer> <main> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <> <1403610359625> <BEA-000362> <Server failed. Reason:

There are 1 nested errors:

weblogic.cacheprovider.coherence.CoherenceException: kss://system/demoidentity does not exist.

Apart from this, all seems to be going right. The kss keystore itself works just fine:

####<24-jun-2014 13:44:02 uur CEST> <Notice> <Security> <PC0075> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <25122c7e-54fd-48dc-874c-8a97fb7ca1b8-0000000b> <1403610242915> <BEA-090171> <Loading the identity certificate and private key stored under the alias DemoIdentity from the kss keystore file kss://system/demoidentity.>;


Is it me or WebLogic that's doing something wrong? (From having worked with WebLogic for just a month or 2, the latter doesn't surprise me at all...)
