No tricks, other than follow the docs. But, what errors are you getting? Check the log files for more information on what is wrong.

The last sentence in there gives the reason - your certificates are not set up correctly. It's either a duff certificate, or, more likely, the certificate authority is not installed right.
This happens a lot when people start with certificates. I find the Atlassian docs on it to be quite good, at least for Java based applications. Run through https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/unable-to-connect-to-ssl-services-due-to-pkix-path-building-failed-779355358.html to get started on a fix.
