If you’re talking about just adhering a weatherstrip/gasket to the door/door jamb, we used 3M Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive from your local automotive parts place. That has worked well for us. Good luck

I support bubba and would add get the 3M pre-apply adhesive catalyst, it increases bond strength immeasurably.

Brian, thanks for the tip on the pre-apply adhesive catalyst. Didn’t know that. Will give it a whirl.

AMHIK...better if the sealing material is silicone, every non silly I tried tore off and stuck to the jam, the 3m stuck real good though and was a pain to remove.
If you use rubber based, coat well with no squeeze clear silicone grease.
