I am attempting to use a certificate with JMeter and can see that it appears to be loaded fine from the logs.
INFO o.a.j.u.SSLManager: JmeterKeyStore Location: certificate.jks type jks
INFO o.a.j.u.SSLManager: KeyStore created OK
INFO o.a.j.u.SSLManager: Total of 1 aliases loaded OK from keystore
Yet, when I send the Http Request, the results from the server just keep stating 'Client Certificate Not Provided'.
Below are the parameters I've used on the command line.
-D javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=jks
-D javax.net.ssl.keyStore=certificate.jks
-D javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password123
All the examples I can find simply state that if I configure the Jmeter element 'KeyStore Configuration' with the alias, it should send the certificate with the requests. It does not seem to be doing so. For the record, I have also tried to use the p12 cert and set the type to pkcs12 with the same results.
What am I missing?
In fact given you have only one certificate you don't need the Keystore Configuration at all, just remove it from the test plan and your setup should start working normally
Most probably your Keystore Configuration is not correct, for instance the "variable name holding certificate alias" is not set or doesn't match the record in the keystore
Check its value using Debug Sampler and make sure that certificate with this alias exists in the keystore. You can see a working sample in How to Use Multiple Certificates When Load Testing Secure Websites article
I was facing issue while login to Carbon Management Console
Version; WSO2 IS 5.10. 0 as Key Manager
Changes:
I have made Mysql database changes for WSO2AM_DB, WSO2Shared_DB,WSO2User_db in deployment.toml file.
When i tried login Management Console with default admin/admin credentials, I am getting error in UI:
Login failed! Please recheck the username and password and try again.
ERROR {org.wso2.carbon.core.services.authentication.AuthenticationAdmin} - System error while Authenticating/Authorizing User : com.mysql.cj.jdbc.exceptions.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure
Also user store changes in deployment.toml cause error
Changes:
[user_store]

com.mysql.cj.jdbc.exceptions.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure normally means the configured database is not accessible.
Did you define the database.user configuration in the deployment.toml according to WSO2 jdbc user configuration guidelines? If this is already configured, check the configured connection url and network connectivity from WSO2-IS to userstore database.
I'm using Jenkins with DC/OS (Mesos) and the service doesn't have a standard login but instead uses Mesos/Zookeeper for authentication. I'm can access JENKINS_HOME and have the config files for each user. I see the config.xml and also see the secret.key. I found this code:
https://github.com/abrindeyev/jenkins-helpers/blob/master/bin/get_api_token.rb
whose purpose is to decode the Jenkins API Token from the config. However, when I run this I get the following error:
/root/decrypt_api.rb:28:in `final': wrong final block length (OpenSSL::Cipher::CipherError)
from /root/decrypt_api.rb:28:in `decrypt'
from /root/decrypt_api.rb:35:in `<main>'
Here's an example Token and Key (from a Docker Jenkins test container):
Cipher in config.xml:
<jenkins.security.ApiTokenProperty>
<apiToken>{AQAAABAAAAAwrkIhJkGOx+QkqgJ/Ep8NhecxeWcqAs78RI9v5kr8y1FSCJBA4YFHrneQGxmetsj3/xSywFRXItIbtuCufWR6ng==}</apiToken>
</jenkins.security.ApiTokenProperty>
Secret Key:
bdafc86eae946c35ca57d3af02a82b733741d59e1eca44e0a3f7ef0b8f25f8e6
How can I decode the Token with the cipher and the key?
You can decode Jenkins token by going to Script Console in your master node (or go to /script), then run the following command:
println(hudson.util.Secret.decrypt("{XXX=}"))
Note: Replace {XXX=} with your token string.
To decrypt it without using Jenkins, checkout these scripts:
tweksteen/jenkins-decrypt, menski/jenkins-decrypt.py.

it should decrypt your token
I'm new to .NET Core and IdentityServer4. I started building an app on localhost using IISExpress together with Temporary Signing Credentials. Everything works great, I'm able to get access token via resource owner password, and make calls to authorized API methods.
However, when I deploy to a server (staging env), I'm always getting a 401 unauthorized for api calls that require authorization.
Before deployment, I made changes (as described below) on my localhost and tested it, result is as expected as before.
Change Temporary Signing Credentials to
services.AddIdentityServer()
.AddSigningCredential(new X509Certificate2(#"C:\Certs\DemoAuth.pfx"))
Create a self signed cert according to steps posted by David Smit
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\makecert" -n "CN=IdentityServer4Auth" -a sha256 -sv IdentityServer4Auth.pvk -r IdentityServer4Auth.cer -b 01/01/2017 -e 01/01/2025
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\pvk2pfx" -pvk IdentityServer4Auth.pvk -spc IdentityServer4Auth.cer -pfx IdentityServer4Auth.pfx
Set app pool settings to true for load user profile
Prior to setting load use profile to true, I've also tried with the following code:
services.AddIdentityServer()
.AddSigningCredential(new X509Certificate2(#"C:\Certs\DemoAuth.pfx", "pwd-here", X509KeyStorageFlags.MachineKeySet))
Can someone point me towards the right direction on the issue I'm facing when deployed?
Thanks in advance.
Make sure the certificate is in the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities (i.e. import your cert into that location in Windows Certificate Manager).
Make sure the account running the AppPool has permission to that certificate (right click the cert and use "Manage Private Keys" menu option under "All Tasks").
I am trying to create Client Certificates Authentication for my asp.net Website.
In order to create client certificates, I need to create a Certificate Authority first:
makecert.exe -r -n “CN=My Personal CA” -pe -sv MyPersonalCA.pvk -a
sha1 -len 2048 -b 01/01/2013 -e 01/01/2023 -cy authority
MyPersonalCA.cer
Then, I have to import it to IIS 7, but since it accepts the .pfx format, i convert it first
pvk2pfx.exe -pvk MyPersonalCA.pvk -spc MyPersonalCA.cer -pfx MyPersonalCA.pfx
After importing MyPersonalCA.pfx, I try to add the https site binding to my Web Site and choose the above as SSL Certificate, but I get the following error:
Any suggestions?
I ran across this same issue, but fixed it a different way. I believe the account I was using changed from the time I initially attempted to set up the certificate to the time where I returned to finish the work, thus creating the issue. What the issue is, I don't know, but I suspect it has to do with some sort of hash from the current user and that is inconsistent in some scenarios as the user is modified or recreated, etc.
To fix it, I ripped out of both IIS and the Certificates snap-in (for Current User and Local Computer) all references of the certificate in question:
Next, I imported the *.pfx file into the certs snap-in in MMC, placing it in the Local Computer\Personal node:
Right-click the Certificates node under Personal (under Local Computer as the root)
All Tasks -> Import
Go through the Wizard to import your *.pfx
From that point, I was able to return to IIS and find it in the Server Certificates. Finally, I went to my site, edited the bindings and selected the correct certificate. It worked because the user was consistent throughout the process.
To the point mentioned in another answer, you shouldn't have to resort to marking it as exportable as that's a major security issue. You're effectively allowing anyone who can get to the box with a similar set of permissions to take your cert with them and import it anywhere else. Obviously that's not optimal.
Security warning: what the checkbox really means is that the certificate can be read by users that shouldn't be able to read it. Such as the user running the IIS worker process. In production use the other answer instead.
Happened to me too, and was fixed by ensuring that "Allow this certificate to be exported" is checked when you import it:
(thanks to this post!)
This must be some kind of IIS bug, but I found the solution.
1- Export MyPersonalCA.pfx from IIS.
2- Convert it to .pem:
openssl pkcs12 -in MyPersonalCA.pfx -out MyPersonalCA.pem -nodes
3- Convert it back to .pfx:
openssl pkcs12 -export -in MyPersonalCA.pem -inkey MyPersonalCA.pem -out MyPersonalCA.pfx
4- Import it back to IIS.
We had the same issue due to incorrectly importing the certificate into the Current User Personal certificate store. Removing it from the Current User Personal store and importing it into the Local Machine Personal certificate store solved the problem.
Nobody probably cares about this anymore, but I just faced this issue with my IIS 7 website binding. The way I fixed it was going to the Certificate Authority and finding the certificate issued to the server with the issue. I verified the user account that requested the certificate. I Then logged into the IIS server using RDP with that account. I was able to rebind the https protocol using that account only. No exports, reissuing, or extension changing hacks were needed.
Instead of importing the cert from IIS, do it from MMC.
Then goto IIS for binding.
In our case this problem occurred because we have installed the certificate in a Virtual Machine and made an image of it for further use.
When creating another VM from the image previously created the certificate sends the message.
To avoid this be sure to install the certificate on every new VM installed.
According to the MSDN blog post, this can happen when the current user account doesn't have permission to access the private key file which is under the folder "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys". Apparently this can be resolved by granting the user account / user group Full Access permission to the above folder.
I've come across the same issue, and was able to resolve it by simply re-importing the .pfx file with the Allow this certificate ti be exported checkbox selected.
However, this method imposes a security risk - as any user who has
access to your IIS server will be able to export your certificate with
the private key.
In my case, only I have access to my IIS server - therefore it was not a huge risk.
I got this error due to wrong openssl command-line during export PKCS #12 certificate. -certfile key was wrong. I exported certificate again and it was imported successfully.
We found another cause for this. If you are scripting the certificate install using PowerShell and used the Import-PfxCertificate command. This will import the certificate. However, the certificate imported cannot be bound to a website in IIS with the same error as this question mentions. You can list certificates using this command and see why:
certutil -store My
This lists the certificates in your Personal store and you will see this property:
Provider = Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider
This storage provider is a newer CNG provider and is not supported by IIS or .NET. You cannot access the key. Therefore you should use certutil.exe to install certificates in your scripts. Importing using the Certificate Manager MMC snap-in or IIS also works but for scripting, use certutil as follows:
certutil -f -p password -importpfx My .\cert.pfx NoExport

Guys after trying almost every single solution to no avail i ended up finding my solution to '“A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.” when using https" below
Verify your pfx cert is healthy with correct private key
Run certutil and locate the certs 'unique Container name' - i used certutil -v -store my
3.Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys and locate the system file that corresponds to your Container name found above
Check permissions and ensure 'system' has full control to file.
Once applied i then checked IIS and was able to apply to https without error
I had the same issue. Solved by removing the certificate from de personal store (somebody put in it) and from the webhosting. All done through the IIS manager. Then I added again to the webhosting store (with everything checked) and I can use HTTPS again...
In my case it was because the World Wide Publishing Service user didn't have permissions to the certificate. After installing the certificate, access the certificates module in MMC and right-click the certificate with the issue. Select "Manage Private Keys..." from the "All Tasks" menu and add the above user. This was SYSTEM user in my case.
I was getting a this error when trying to bind localhost pfx cert for my development machine.
Before i tried any of this above, tried something simpler first.
Closed any localhost dev site i had openned.
Stopped my IIS server and closed the manager
run the manager as Admin
Added all my https bindings, no errors or issues this time.
restarted iis
Everything seems to work after that.
I was getting same error whilst binding the certificate, but fixed after deleting the certificate and importing again through mmc console.
In my case, it has been fixed by using certutil -repairstore command. I was getting following error, when trying to add certificate to Web Binding on IIS using powershell:
A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated.
I fixed it by running:
certutil.exe -repairstore $CertificateStoreName $CertThumbPrint
where CertificateStoreName is store name, and CertThumbPrint is the thumbprint of imported certificate.
I recieved this error message when trying to use the following powershell command:
(Get-WebBinding -Port 443 -Name
"WebsiteName").AddSslCertificate("<CertificateThumbprint>", "My")
The solution for me was to go into certificate manager and give IIS_IUSRS user permission to see the certificate.
These are the steps I followed:
Move the certificate into [Personal > Certificates]
Right click [All Tasks > Manage Private Keys]
Add the IIS_IUSRS user (which is located on the local computer not in your domain if you're attached to one)
Give read permission
I managed to fix this problem by importing the SSL certificate PFX file using Windows Certificate Manager.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/view-or-manage-your-certificates
I just had this issue today and feel compelled to post my solution in the hope that you will lose less hair than I've just done.
After trying the solutions above, we had to re-issue the SSL certificate from the SSL provider (RapidSSL issuing as a reseller for GeoTrust).
There was no cost with this process, just the five minute wait while the confirmation emails (admin#) arrived, and we gained access again.
Once we had the response, we used IIS > Server Certificates to install it. We did not need the MMC snap-in.
https://knowledge.rapidssl.com/support/ssl-certificate-support/index?page=content&id=SO5757
We kept a remote desktop window to the server open throughout, to avoid any issues with differing login accounts/sessions, etc. I do believe it is an IIS bug as another expert believes, as we only have one RDC account. What is most infuriating is that the very same certificate has been working perfectly for two months before suddenly "breaking".
In my case I imported a newer version of a certificate (PFX for IIS) from StartSSL just recently and forgot to remove the old one, which somehow caused this error (now two certs sort of the same). I removed both of them, imported the proper one, and now it works.
I was able to fix this problem by removing the then importing it by double clicking the certificate.
For me, the fix was to delete the cert from IIS and re-import it, but into the "personal" certificate store instead of "web hosting"
According to the below, this is fine, at least for my own circumstances.
What's the difference between the Personal and Web Hosting certificate store?
Also, should it make any difference, I imported the certificate via the wizard after double clicking on it on the local machine, instead of via the IIS import method. After this the certificate was available in IIS automatically.
Here's what worked for me:
Step 1: Open up a Run window and type "mmc"
Step 2: Click File > Add/Remove Snap In
Step 3: Add > Certificates, Click OK
Step 4: Choose "Computer Account", then "Local Computer" and proceed.
Step 5: Hit OK
Step 6: Right click the Certificates folder on: Console Root > Certificates (Local Computer) > Personal > Certificates
Step 7: Select All Tasks > Import (Please note that the "Local Machine" is selected on the next window)
Step 8: Browse your .pfx file
Step 9: Then go to the IIS and create https binding
Try :
Go into IIS and delete "VSTS Dev Router" web site and "VSTS Dev Router Pool" application pool.
Run “certlm.msc” and open Personal/Certificates
Delete any cert named “*.vsts.me” and "vsts.me"
Re-deploy
