Enter certificate to add to trusted keystore or 'q' to quit: [1]  

(1) Input 1, Enter, will generate Security certificate named "jssecacerts"

(2) Copy this file "jssecacerts" to directory "$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security"  or use the following way: System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "你的jssecacerts证书路径");

(3) Restart the web  server, the certificate will take effect.
