Hello,
Thanks for your hint.

I made a copy of my keystore. Then I changed alias:
my private key now uses the alias "mykey".
I changed our certificate's alias to "tomcat", by keytool's -changealias
command.

Now this is my certificate (the third one that differs from INTER and ROOT)
Alias name: tomcat

Entry type : trustedCertEntry

Owner : CN=$myCN OU=Domain Control Validated - RapidSSL(R), OU=See
www.rapidssl.com/resources/cps (c)11, OU=$myOrganizationalUnit,
O=$myOrganization, C=FR, SERIALNUMBER=$mySerialNumber
Issuer : CN=RapidSSL CA, O="GeoTrust, Inc.", C=US


In my server.xml I changed keyAlias from "tomcat" to "mykey" and referenced
the new keystore file.

However at last I still could not show GeoTrust or RapidSSL as certificate
issuer when I browsed to Tomcat welcome page. The certificate returned to my
web browser was still a self-signed one.

Do I have to rebuild my keystore from scratch and request another
certificate from our CA, just because of a mistake in my old alias?
