Hi
I am adding an authorized certificate and it gives me an error message
"It is not possible to install certificate because the private key does not correspond to the associated certificate"
I also have the private key and I have added certificates of this same type in DCO without problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Iván González Borraz,
Starting with DCE version 7.5.0 there is protections against importing a certificate where the private key does not match the one currently on the server. To import a certificate into the DCE server a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) should be generated from DCE, which can then be signed by your CA (Certificate Authority). I am not aware of any way of importing a private key into DCE, so I believe that a CSR must be used.
Instructions on generating a CSR can be found here:
Kind Regards,
Cory

Oppss... This is a big problem for companies that have certificates of Wildcard type.

Iván González Borraz,
My recommendation would be for you to submit a feature request from this site. That will allow the necessary teams to review if/when this feature would be implemented. Note that submitting a feature request does not guarantee that the feature will be added into the software.
Resources Menu > Feature Requests or you can access directly with the following link:
