| |
113.1 | 283 | === My certificate is in .pem format, but my program only accepts .p12 format. What should I do? === |
| |
1.1 | 284 | |
| |
113.1 | 285 | The certificate you downloaded from the Self-Service Portal (ssp.cit.tum.de) is in .pem format, and some client programs do not support it. This problem is easily solved. All you have to do is find a program that accepts .pem files. Firefox is one of them, and since it is widespread, we'll assume that Firefox is being used for this guide. |
| |
1.1 | 286 | |
| |
113.1 | 287 | Now to the real issue: |
| |
1.1 | 288 | |
| |
113.1 | 289 | 1) Make sure your old expired certificate is installed in Firefox. If it is not installed there, you must export the old certificate from another application and import it into Firefox. How to export a certificate can be found in our [[Wiki instructions>>https://xwiki.rbg.tum.de/bin/view/Informatik/Helpdesk/ZertifikatExportieren#Firefox]]. |
| |
1.1 | 290 | |
| |
113.1 | 291 | 2) Import the new certificate (.pem-file) in Firefox. How to install a certificate can be found above on this page. |
| |
1.1 | 292 | |
| |
113.1 | 293 | 3) Export the new certificate from Firefox. |
| |
1.1 | 294 | |
| 295 | |||
| |
113.1 | 296 | Voilà! Now you have a new .p12 file, which can be imported into other programs as usual. |
