CentOS provides a wrapper script that allows a user to easily create their own CA. To create your own CA perform the following steps:

1) /etc/pki/tls/misc/CA -newca (respond to all prompts)
2) Now that your CA is created, you can now generate cert requests by performing the following command: /etc/pki/tls/misc/CA -newreq 
3) With the request now created, sign it by running /etc/pki/tls/misc/CA -sign

Move the newly created key & cert files to the designated directory and reference their location in your app configuration.
