InCommon Certificate Problem

    Posted Apr 09, 2018 03:09 PM

    I've generated a CSR and private key file from my ClearPass.

     

    I've used that CSR to get a certificate from my provider - InCommon.

     

    When trying to import that certificate and the private key, I get the message:

    Private Key File does not match the Certificate

     

    Either I am doing something wrong, or there is something wrong with this certificate I am being issued (I've tried more than once)

     

    Thanks for any help.

    Compare the public and private keys using openssl to ensure they are a match.

     

    It's also generally recommended to do your CSR and key generation offline.

    Creating them using openssl did the trick.

     

    Thanks!
