Issue while authenticating using self signed certificate

  • 1.  Issue while authenticating using self signed certificate

    Posted Thu October 15, 2015 08:58 AM

    Hi,
    i am having issues while authenticating using certificate. I always get below error when try to reach HTTPS:
    "Certificate-based authentication failed

    ERR_BAD_SSL_CLIENT_AUTH_CERT"
    “This server requires a certificate for authentication, and didn’t accept the one sent by the browser. Your certificate may have expired, or the server may not trust its issuer. You can try again with a different certificate, if you have one, or you may have to obtain a valid certificate from elsewhere.”

    What i did :

    1. Generated a certificate.pfx file and created keystore alias of type PKCS12 in IS admin using this file.
    2. Generated a server.jks file and created trust store alias in Is admin.
    3. Created a new https port and selected client authentication as “Require Certificate”. Map the above to this port.
    4. import the above .pfx to borwser and add it to trust certificate list.

    i dont know what i am doing wrong but I always get certificate error when try access this https port. Appreciate any help with regard to this.
    i am using 9.8 version.
