Receiving and Installing Certificate

Use

When the certificate is ready, you receive a notification that your certificate is available. Install the certificate on the server where the secured service is going to be installed.

For ECF, see also Generating Keystore and Generating Truststore.

Procedure

To start the installation wizard, double-click the certificate. If no wizard is available, proceed in the following way:

  1. Copy the certificate file on the server where the secured service is going to be installed. Use for example the name newcert.cer.

  2. Start the command prompt and change to the directory, where you have the certification file.

  3. Execute the following command, using the name you chose above: certreq -accept newcert.cer.

  4. If everything goes as expected, the command does not write any response on the screen.
