Hello!

I have created a self signed Trusted CA certificate with open SSL and tried to upload it to my controller and keep getting "Error Uploading Certificate: Error in cert format". I have already tried converting it to .cer/.pem/.crt formats, but still get the same message.

What is wrong? (Are there some special criteria for the certificate?)

Cheers!

Did you use the procedure here?  http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controller-Based-WLANs/How-can-I-use-OpenSSL-to-create-CA-server-and-public/ta-p/179206

Yes, I did look at this guide, but it gives me an error after the 3rd step, because the guy references stuff thats not even there (eg.:  first he says put the openssl.cfg to -config /opt/pki/openssl.cnf and then references it in -config /bnet/pki/openssl.cnf) so it would take me more time to get when and where he is referencing stuff then to make new certificates if I knew what the criteria is for a certificate. (eg.: .pem/.der; sha1/sha256 etc.)

I only found the max key length and that it has to be x509 format .pem (Thats what I uploaded and it said error).

Also, in this user guide, I dont see where he adds the SAN to the certificate, and chrome and opera only accepts web certificates, that contain the san for ssl.

Thx!

To be clear, are you trying to use the certificate for EAP-TLS Termination or for Web-Based Authentication?

Well, I need a ROOT CA certificate for EAP-TLS and I need a Server certificate (signed by the root CA) for web administration.
