Importing CA certificate failed

BillShoop

Hello all!

I am trying to import an existing server certificate (.pfx) but keep getting "Importing CA certificate failed." message. I dig into the logs and it says the password is incorrect. Weird because I was able to import the .pfx into IIS and bind it to port 443 with the same password. Why would I be getting a password error?

ArcGIS Server 10.9.1

Thanks!

The behavior you are describing sounds like an issue related to special characters in the .pfx password that are getting misinterpreted by ArcGIS Server. That being said, a bug was logged several years ago for that issue specifically which was fixed in 10.7.

BUG-000107534 - SSL Certificates with special characters in the password fails to import to ArcGIS Server.

At 10.9.1 I wouldn't think you would run into that issue. If it is a password issue, a possible workaround would be to import the pfx into IIS (since that works) and export it to a new pfx with a different password.

just would like to throw this out there, this issue still exists on ArcGIS Enterprise 12.0, our .pfx uses the special char # and we were getting this error { "status": "error", "messages": ["invalid null input"], "code": 500 }

changing the password was the fix.

I've just encountered this issue in ArcGIS Portal 10.9.1
The cert had ( and $ in the password, loaded fine into my ArcGIS Server machines - but NOT into the Portal machine. Imported the cert into IIS, and exported with a new password, and it loaded into Portal fine.

@JeffSmith I did encounter this issue in ArcGIS Server 10.9.1. The Special Characters used were $ and ~. After changing the password to not include any special characters ( alphanumeric only), the import worked.

There is also an Enhancement logged: ENH-000148002: Enable using special characters (like €, ₹) in the SSL Certificate's password while importing the certificate to ArcGIS Server

btw: Spaces in the file name of certificates can also be problematic.

Hey @JeffSmith , I was aware of the bug but like you I wouldn't think it would effect it. Looks like we are both wrong haha. After changing the cert's password to remove the special characters, I was able to import the cert into the ArcGIS Server admin API.

Thanks!
