CA Cert for Plesk Login

I have a customer who wishes to use their XRamp wildcard SSL certificate for practically everything.

However IE is complaining when he navigates to the login screen:

"The Security Certificate presented by this website was not issued by a trusted Certificate Authority."

It works fine everywhere else.

Now I can grab the CA certs from XRamp's site, but they are already added under Server -> Certificates.

Since Plesk runs it's own instance of Apache it's safe to assume I need to install the CA certs into this instance. How would I adjust the Plesk webserver specific settings?

FYI: http://kb.swsoft.com/en/1712 < Following this KB does not resolve the certificate error in IE even though the CA cert is in place.
 
OK So a coworker of mine figured this out during lunch. It appears that the psa database was not being update to use the proper cert file.

He created the CA Cert:

/usr/local/psa/var/certificates/cert-wildcard

and update the PSA database:

mysql> update certificates set ca_file='cert-wildcard' where name='*.example.com' LIMIT 1;

And everything worked fine after that point.
