Step by step Instructions

Step 1: Copy your SSL Certificate to file

You will receive an email from us with your SSL certificate in the email. Copy & paste your SSL Certificate (including the -----BEGIN NETSCAPE CERTIFICATE CHAIN----- and -----END NETSCAPE CERTIFICATE CHAIN----- headers) into a raw text editor such as BBEdit or Notepad, ensuring that no extra line spaces or extra characters are inserted into the data. Choose to save the file as yourdomainname.txt.

Step 2: Install your SSL Certificate

When your certificate is issued you will receive 4 certificates:

Yourdomain.cer
Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXp.crt or Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXs.crt
UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt

• Add the Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXp.crt or Digi-SignCADigi-SSLXs.crt certificate as Trusted Roots:

When you receive your certificates you need to store them in the mydomain directory.

NOTE: If you obtain a private key file from a source other than the Certificate Request Generator servlet, verify that the private key file is in PKCS#5/PKCS#8 PEM format.

To use a certificate chain, append the additional PEM-encoded digital certificates to the digital certificate that issued for the WebLogic Server (the intermediate CA certificate). The last digital certificate in the file chain will be the Root certificate that is self-signed. (example below:)

Upload a New SSL Certificate

You will be sent 3 certificates via email from Digi-Sign. The certificate named after your domain name or server is the only file from the email that you will need - this is your SSL Certificate.

Step by step instructions

• Delete ALL text from this file that appears before -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE. Your document should contain only certificate information within this email. After you delete extra text, save this file inside your temporary directory as TEXT and filename "mycert.der".




• To configure OAS 4.0.8 listener with your SSL files, go to OAS 4.0.8 Node Manager page (Usually on port 8888). Click on "OAS Manager".

When you receive your Digi-SSL™ certificate back from Digi-Sign, it will be encrypted with your public key so that only you can decrypt it. Only by entering the correct password for your trust database, can you decrypt and install your certificate.

There are three types of certificates:

• Your own server's certificate to present to clients
• A Digi-Sign CA certificate for use in a certificate chain
