I used the 4.0.0-015321 ISO build for Centos 5.

I went and got a SSL certificate from a CA, assuming it would be forapache, and

it said it imported it OK, but it is not usingit. Shold it run a script to add 
this to the store and change theApache SSL conf to point to it, or is it just 
replaacing another one? Iwould assume this is a new one, since the crt name is 
different.

This is a brand new install and should be reproducible on anotherCentos 5 ISO, 
can someone confirm this? I noticed this on the 3.11.12xbuilds as well (also 
Centos 5 ISO's), and the several I looked at hadthe same problem. I mentioned 
this was not working in a reply tosomeone asking how to use a signed 
certificate.

**I've not tested this yet, but am hoping to soon...

I think you are talking about web certificates.

In 4.0 the process will be like this:

in sipXconfig UI as superadmin, go to System>Web Certificates.

Fill in the form data properly. Make sure you have the FQDN of the server, not 
just the domain name.

Click the "Generate" button. This will create a CSR which you copy and submit 
to your certificate provider.

The certificate provider will in turn give you a file or text.
System>Web Certificates>Import (left side), choose your method (file or text) 
and click Import.

Idon't know if the CSR function is properly working on every build of4.0 
(doesn't seem to for 4.0.0-015249 2009-04-22T00:52:16 ecs-centos5),but it does 
seem straightforward.

Should I be looking in sipxconfig.log?

Yes, please check sipxconfig.log and see if you find something interesting related to certificates in there. Maybe it could be helpful.

While trying to get a web certificate created, I filled in the fields needed to generate the CSR.
I get the message "Generation of CSR completed successfully."

The text bx which "should" show the CSR, is empty.

This was a new install from ISO. I tried multiple browsers. I see this is 
created in:

/var/sipxdata/configserver/web-cert
as -web.csr.

Can this safely be used to obtain a certificate from a CA?

Is this a bug?

Thanks,

Tony
I tested in 4.0.1 rev 15331 build from sources and couldn't reproduce. Apparently it looks like a bug to me. Could you check sipxconfig.log for related errors ? However, i think it is safe to use this -web.csr generated file to obtain a certificate from a CA.

Bogdan
