I installed an SSL certificate using keytool on the apache tomcat server. When my site loads, depending on the certificate, I either get a blank screen loading or the certificate error on the toolbar next to the URL that doesn't go away. The site works though, but I would like to get rid of that Certificate Error displaying. I am using Internet Explorer 8 and a self signed certificate when the site works, although with the certificates error displaying. And when I use a proper CA certificate that is when I get a blank screen.
I run the following command: keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias tomcat2 -file C:\bonaire\revport\revport-it.us.bank-dns.com.crt -keystore c:\bonaire\revport\.keystore Keytool allowed me to place the certificate into the keystore where my selfsigned certificate is located. (If I run a keytool -list -keystore c:\bonaire\revport\.keystore, I see 2 entries now, one with the self signed certificate I created, and one with the new certificate I just created above). It gave no errors and allowed me to add it, just asked if I should trust the certificate which I said yes. Then in my connector, I have: <Connector port="443" maxThreads="200" scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEnabled="true" keystoreFile="C:\Bonaire\REVPORT\.keystore" keystorePass="changeit" keyAlias="tomcat2" proxyName="revport-it.us.bank-dns.com" proxyPort="443" /> And then on the browser, when I try to load the site, I get a blank screen again, says "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". If I use "tomcat" as the alias in my connector, the site loads but then I get the "Certificate Error" popup again, which is what I need to get rid of (on the top right the Internet Explorer).
