You saved my day! Thx for sharing!

Hi, thanks for your script. I would suggest, that the test if JAVA_HOME is set or empty should be enhanced your script:

   if [ "x$JAVA_HOME" == "x"  ]; then
        JAVA_HOME=${1}
        echo "Set JAVA_HOME env. variable"
   fi
   if [ ! -d $JAVA_HOME ]; then ...

because JAVA_HOME is set but empty.

Thanks for doing the initial work in this @galan.

I've forked your version to update it with information on the current set (as of 2020-02-07) of Let's Encrypt's intermediate certs. At the same time I've incorporated @amcsSH's suggestion above, and used the Bash 4 dictionary feature to remove the redundant duplication of certificate names and files.

If you don't have set PATH to $JAVA_HOME/jre/bin/ then keytool won't work.
Here a simple fix:
change all commands "keytool" with this:

$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin/keytool

Please refer to LetsEncrypt's Chain of Trust document for up-to-date references.
Hint: I needed to adapt the script to download and install https://letsencrypt.org/certs/lets-encrypt-r3.der
