Chris, If it turns out you are using APR, when you export your signed certificate and CA-bundles, just specify that you want them for "apache" not "tomcat". Then you can reference the files directly in the server.xml. If you are using the java-based connectors, you should ask for "tomcat" signed certificates, and I think you have to somehow combine them for use in the keystore (it's been a long time since I did that, I'm APR only). In other words, when you request a cert signed for "tomcat" at GoDaddy, it really means a java keystore compatible certificate. When you select "apache" it really means an OpenSSL compatible certificate.
