Java SSL Certificate Installation

How to install your SSL Digital Certificate

1. Download your Certificate files from your DigiCert Web-PKI Customer Account to the directory where you will keep your certificate and key files.

   The three certificates you downloaded must be installed to your keystore in the correct order for your DigiCert certificate to be trusted. If the certificates are not installed in the correct order, then the certificate will not authenticate properly. Use keytool to install all three, as follows:

2. Install the Root Certificate file:

   Type the following command to install the certificate file:

   keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias root -file TrustedRoot.crt -keystore your_domain.jks

   ** Note: Choose 'Yes' if you get prompted with a message that says "Certificate already exists in system-wide CA keystore under alias <entrustserverca> Do you still want to add it to your own keystore? [no]:"

3. Install the Intermediate Certificate file:

   Type the following command to install the certificate file:

   keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias digicert -file DigiCertCA.crt -keystore your_domain.jks

4. Install the Primary Certificate file:

   Type the following command to install the certificate file:

   keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias server -file your_domain_name.crt -keystore your_domain.jks

   You will be prompted for the password, which you chose when generating your CSR.

   It will ask if you want to trust the SSL Certificate. Choose y or yes.

   When it says 'Certificate was added to keystore', you are done.
