　　This post explains step by step actions to enable SSL in Tomcat

• Generate an RSA key for signing the certificate:
  openssl genrsa -out key.pem 2048
  
• Generate a certificate using the new key:
  openssl req -new -x509 -key key.pem -out cert.pem -days 365
  　　Answer the quesstions with your name, organization name, e-mail, etc.
  
  
• Since the certificate is in PEM format, convert it to PKCS12 for Tomcat:
  openssl pkcs12 -export -in cert.pem -inkey key.pem -out cert.p12 -name tomcat
  　　Enter a password, don’t leave it blank.
  
  
• Edit $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml and modify the SSL connector:
      <Connector port="8443"
  maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
  enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
  acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
  clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreType="PKCS12"
  keystoreFile="conf/cert.p12" keystorePass="password"/>
  　　Remember to change password with the one typed at 3.
  
  

　　Note: DON’T use a self-signed certificate in a PRODUCTION SITE! Contact with a CA to sign your certificate.
