Tomcat Server

  • The certificates you receive will be:
      • UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt
      Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXp.crt or Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXs.crt
      your_domain.crt
  • These must be imported in the correct order:
      • UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt
      Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXp.crt or Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXs.crt
      your_domain.crt
  • Use the keytool command to import the certificates as follows:
      • eytool -import -trustcacerts -alias root -file UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt -keystore domain.key

      For Digi-SSL Xp™ Certificates
      Keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias INTER -file Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXp.crt -keystore domain.key

      For Digi-SSL Xs™ Certificates
      Keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias INTER -file Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXs.crt -keystore domain.key

  • If you are using an alias then please include the alias command in the string. Example:
      • Keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias yyy (where yyy is the alias specified during CSR creation) -file your_domain.crt -keystore domain.key

      The password is then requested.

      Enter keystore password: (This is the one used during CSR creation)
      The following information will be displayed about the certificate and you will be asked if you want to trust it (the default is no so type 'y' or 'yes'):

        Owner: CN=UTN-USERFirst-Hardware, O=The USERTRUST Network, C=US
        Issuer: CN=UTN-USERFirst-Hardware, O=The USERTRUST Network, C=US
        Serial number: 44 be 0c 8b 50 00 24 b4 11 d3 36 2a fe 65 0a fd
        Valid from: Fri Jul 9 18:10:42 GMT 1999 until: Fri Jul 9 18:19:22 GMT 2019
        Certificate fingerprints:
        MD5: ...
        SHA1: 04 83 ed 33 99 ac 36 08 05 87 22 ed bc 5e 46 00 e3 be f9 d7
        Trust this certificate? [no]:
    • Then an information message will display as follows:
        • Certificate was added to keystore

        All the certificate are now loaded and the correct root certificate will be presented.

        You will need to amend your configuration to use the new keystore file you created.

    • Update server.xml configuration file:
        • 1. Open "$JAKARTA_HOME/conf/server.xml" in a text editor.

        2. Find the following section:

        <-- Define a SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8443 -->
        port="443" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
        enableLookups="true" disableUploadTimeout="true"
        acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true";
        clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="domain.key"
        keystorePass="YOUR_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD" />

      After completing these configuration changes, you must restart Tomcat as you normally do, and you should be in business. You should be able to access any web application supported by Tomcat via SSL.
