Problem enabling SSL on a MQSeries Adapter

Question

I'm trying to enable SSL and so far these are the steps I've done:
- I've been using the DemoIdentity.jks and DemoTrust.jks files located under <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\wlserver_10.3\server\lib for all my certificate operations.
- I created a PrivateKey and imported it to my DemoIdentity store, created a certificate request and when I got the response imported it back using the same alias. Something I want to highlight here is that when I created the PrivateKey I left the password field empty so it supposed inherit the keystore's.
- I also imported the CA cert into the DemoTrust.jks
My MQAdapter is all set and when I used it with no SSL it was working just fine so I think I have the problem isolated.
Anyway, now when I try to connect this is what I'm getting in the logs:

nager$JCAConnectionPool.createJCAConnection(JCAConnectionManager.java:1335)

Googling this it seems like it's a problem with the keystore and private key passwords being different but I changed the private key's to match the keystore (something that I shouldn't be necessary because of the keytool's default behavior when generating the key) with no positive results.
Anyway, any ideas would be really appreciated. I've been spinning my wheels on this issue for 3 days now.
BTW, here's I'm using Oracle SOA11g.

What are the steps you are doing to create a FlexConnect WLAN
Check wether you have done this
1. You should havee a flexconnect mode AP in your network
2. That AP should connect via a trunk link back to your switch port
3. Under "FlexConnect" tab of that AP configuration you need to map required vlans where native vlan should be the AP managment in this trunk (AP connected Switch port)
4. Under WLAN advanced settings, you have to enable "Local Switching" if you want to do local switching. Leave it untick if you want to do central switching.
This is some of my notes when I did this on a WLC 7.0.116.0 (feature was called H-REAP in that time & later modified to FlexConnect). This should help you as well
