The SSL certificate that you install in your tomcat must be signed by a Certificate Authority that your browser recognizes as trusted. Meaning that you have two possibilities: 1) Let your server-side certificate be signed by a known Certificate Authority like Verisign, this will cost you some money 2) Create an own Certificate Authority and 'distribute' it to your clients which will have to install it in their browser as trusted CA
