The default profile is stored in the database when starting the server 
for the first time. It is better to change validity throught the 
Web-GUI. Or better yet, create a new profile, which is the intended way.

But if you really want to change the default you should stop JBoss, 
delete the contents of the database table 'CertificateProfileData' and 
restart JBoss again.

Or you must change the 'upgrade' function of the certificate profile 
class to update the profile with the new value. This might conflict with 
future upgrades of the default profile off-course.
