Tomcat Confluence and SSL

In case you try to enable SSL at your confluence environment:

First create your PKCS12 Certificate

openssl pkcs12 -export -in <your .cer certificate> -inkey <your private keyfile> -out tomcat.p12 -name tomcat -CAfile <cacertfile> -caname root

-> give a export passwort i.e.'tomcat-password'

then

keytool -importkeystore -deststorepass 'keystorepassword' -destkeypass 'password-of-certificate' -destkeystore <tomcatkeystorefile> -srckeystore tomcat.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -srcstorepass 'tomcat-password' -alias tomcat

You need to change 8443 to 443:

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8443

sudo /sbin/iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4

Don't forget to install:

apt install iptables-persistent
