WebLogic Server 8 – 12x: Install and Configure Your SSL/TLS Certificate

  1. If you still need to create a certificate signing request (CSR) and order your certificate, 
  1. After we've validated and issued your SSL certificate, you can install it on your WebLogic 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12.x server (where the CSR was generated) and configure the server to use the certificate.
  1. Step 1: Use Java Keytool to Install Your SSL Certificate in WebLogic
keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias server -file /your_domain_com.p7b 
-keystore your_domain_com.jks
You should get a confirmation that the "Certificate reply was installed in keystore".
  • If you are prompted to trust the certificate, type "y" or "yes".
  • The installation of this file loads all the necessary certificates to your Keystore.
  1. Now you just need to configure your server to use the certificate.
Step II: Configure the Keystore for Use in WebLogic
  1. On your WebLogic server, expand the Servers node and select the server you need to configure.
  1. Next, go to Configuration-->Keystores and SSL.
  1. To enable your new keystore, under Keystore Configuration, click the Change... link
  1. Select Custom Identity and Java Standard Trust as your keystore configuration type, and then click Continue.
  1. Under Custom Identity Keystore File Name, type the full path to the your_domain.jks file on your WebLogic server.
  1. For Custom Identity Keystore Type, select jks.
  1. For Custom Identity Keystore PassPhrase, type the password you created when creating the Keystore.
  1. When asked again, type your Keystore password and confirm.
  1. Click Continue. Then click Finish.
  1. Go back and expand the Server node and select the server you are configuring.
  1. Next, go to Configuration-->Keystores and SSL and under Keystore Configuration, click the Change… link
  1. On the Configure SSL page, select Key Stores as the method in which identity and trust is stored for the WebLogic server.
  • Click Continue. Then click Finish.
  • Congratulations! Your Keystore should now be installed and enabled on your WebLogic server.
