Hello Pierre,

Yes, I contacted the technical support at GoDaddy and then basically told
me that I'm on my own and that I should find someone that knows how to
handle the configuration -- that's all the aid they gave me.

I think that there two separate problems here.
First one, the mismatch between the files I receive zipped and the ones
referred in the website when it reads:

"The file names for your root and intermediate certificates depend on your
signature algorithm.

   - SHA-1 root certificate: gd_class2_root.crt
   - SHA-2 root certificate: gdroot-g2.crt
   - SHA-1 intermediate certificate: gd.intermediate.crt
   - SHA-2 intermediate certificate: gdig2.crt
   - (*Java 6/7 only*) SHA-2 Root Certificate: gdroot-g2_cross.crt"

But the files I get when I unzip the downloaded archive are:

my_certificate.crt
gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt
gdig2.crt

So first thing here is that I don't how to use them when following the
instructions stated on the site (the only one I can identify is
my_certificate.crt).

With the second issue my guess is that it might be related to the KeyStore
file not holding the private key:
I wasn't given the original tomcat.keystore file (following the example on
GoDaddy's website) so here I'm starting from the scratch, generating a new
KeyStore.
What I have though is a PEM file from the person I presume the .csr request
file; is there a way to add it to the KeyStore file I create when following
the instructions on GoDaddy's site?

Thank you very much for stepping in!
-Conor
