configuring https enabled tomcat using user and CA certificate

[Abhishek Srivastava]

I have both user and CA certificate and trying to import into keystore
"newkeystore" file

*C:\>keytool -import -alias root -keystore newkeystore -trustcacerts -file
cacert.pem*


*C:\>keytool -import -alias tomcat -keystore newkeystore -file usercert.pem*



then I have configured this newkeystore in *tomcat6.0* server.xml
file...given the contents..

*<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
               keystoreFile="C:/newkeystore"
               keystorePass="welcome"
               keyStoreType="JKS"
               keyAlias="root"
          />*
and also tried with giving alias keyAlias="tomcat"

we are facing the error in starting of tomcat....
