If I go to https://systemideveloper.com then chrome says the site is secure, and lists the cert as being issued by Sectigo RSA. If I just go to systemideveloper.com then I get a plain http page that isn't marked as secure.

Subject: Re: [WEB400] Wrestling with SSL Cert

Follow up to the follow up!

Just decided to try a "clean" browser (new copy of Opera) and tried the site.

On the little "security globe" if I click it it says that the site is unsafe - but then goes on to tell me that the three certs in the tree are all valid - and gives me no hint why it isn't trusted.

Any ideas?

If you're having issues exporting CAs from a certificate, check out
this link and the section on doing just that:

Thanks for the link Pete - I was wondering how the heck to check.

There are two certs in the bundle and these are the details.

It would seem that the issue is that although some of the
correspondence said Comodo the cert is associated with their new name Sectigo.

So that explains why they are not active as a CA in the store - but
that doeswn'rt explain why the DCM errors out when I try to add them as a CA.

I understand the basics behind all this - but surely IBM could make
it easier than this!

Just don't know what to try next.

If you generated a CSR and they issued the certificate then I don't
think you need to go through the whole thing again. I use LetEncrypt
and have renewed multiple times using the same CSR so that has just
been my experience. You can generate a new CSR every time if you
want to. When I request a new certificate from Comodo, I used the
same CSR as well. But, starting with a new CSR shouldn't be any different.....

I don't quite understand why your certificate is failing. If you
had
Comodo before, the CA for Comodo should be in the certificate store.
You may want to open the bundle and then copy the certificate and
paste it into https://www.sslshopper.com/certificate-decoder.html and
see what it shows as the CA and the details of the certificate.
SSLShopper has a bunch of tools to figure out what is going on with
certificates. You can also check your CSR there. But, I doubt the
issue is with the CSR because Comodo wouldn't have signed it
otherwise. Maybe NameCheap as the intermediate is the issue and yes, use the entire bundle as your certificate to import.

Push come to shove, you can email NameCheap and explain the situation.
They might let you re-generate the CSR and request a new cert. But,
it just seems strange to me that you can't renew the certificate.
Not a lot of moving parts to break here......

Namecheap will send you the cert, which you can export the CAs from.
Of
course you need to do a little domain ownership verification first.

John,

It's best to simply do a new CSR and import a new certificate
(CAs
first
of
course). Trying to renew using normal methods is a headache on
the
IBM
i.
So I just simply generate a new CSR each time.

I already have a cert applied but it is expiring.

Selected to renew it.

Chose to generate a new key pair.

Used the data to request the new key.

Got cert and attempted to apply. Keep getting a message that
there
is
no
such certificate in the store.


Question for those of you who understand all this. Could this
be
caused
because the new cert is not issued by the same authority as the
previous
one? Original was from Comodo - new one from NameCheap - but
the underlying ceret is still from Comodo.

If that is the case, can I still use the certificate that I
have
for a
new
entry?
