Before installing your Trustwave SSL certificate, you will need to install the Trustwave intermediate certificates. With ikeyman open, open the "Key Database File" that you used to create the original request and private key. Enter the password for the keystore and click "OK".

Select "Signer Certificates" and click "Add". For "Data Type", be sure to select "Base64-encoded ASCII data". Take the xroot.crt file from the e-mail that you received from Trustwave when your certificate was issued and move it onto the WebSphere server. Click "Browse" and locate the file. Click "OK" and make a label for the CA certificate. After clicking "OK" again, you will see the CA certificates in the "Signer Certificates" field.
