Installation Instructions for BEA WebLogic 8.1
This document provides instructions for installing
SSL Certificates. If you are unable to use these instructions for your
server, VeriSign recommends that you contact your software vendor or
an organisation that supports BEA WebLogic 8.1.
Premium and Intranet Edition SSL Certificates
If you are installing a Managed PKI for SSL
Premium Edition or a Managed PKI for SSL Intranet Certificate, you need
to first install the intermediate CA (‘intermediate.crt’) provided by
your administrator. Place the text file in the same directory as your
SSL Certificate. For example: /usr/local/ssl/crt
Managed PKI for SSL Administrators: how to
find your Intermediate
CA.
Step 1: Create Keystores
Private keys, digital certificates and trusted
CA certificates are stored in keystores so that WebLogic Server can
use them to find and verify identity. Use the Keystore Configuration
section of the Keystores and SSL page of the WebLogic Server Administration
Console to configure identity and trust keystores or specify them on
the command-line.
Step 2: Install the SSL Certificate
Once your administrator has approved your request
you will receive an email from VeriSign that contains your certificate.
If the certificate is an attachment (Cert.cer), you can use the file.
If the certificate is in the body of the email, copy and paste it into
a text file (such as OriginalCert.txt) using Vi or Notepad. Do not use
Microsoft Word or other word processing programs that may add characters.
Confirm that there are no extra lines or spaces in the file.
To import the SSL Certificate run the following
command:
keytool -import -alias aliasforprivatekey -file
privatekeyfilename.pem -keypass privatekeypassword -keystore keystorename
-storepass keystorepassword
