Installing updated PFX wildcard into tomcat keystore

Found some documentation around the web and some pointed to having to extract the keys out of the PFX/PKCS12 format and convert to JKS (Java Keystore). But I also saw some documentation that suggests just entering the keystore file as the pfx file. So I tried that and worked.

keystoreFile="certificate.pfx" keystorePass="yourpassword" keystoreType="PKCS12"

It's important to set PKCS12 as the keystore type as by default I believe Tomcat is looking for JKS formats.

Hope this helps someone out in the future.
