Certificate Request - Oracle Wallet

Hi,
I need a help from yours, please try to help me to solve a problem.
I have a token certified for my company and i need to use this certified to comunicate to a Brazilian Federal, but i didin't have an idea how to this, and after read i saw that exists the Oracle Manager and Net assitant to do SSL connections, but i don't know how to use the Oracle wallet right(if its really necessary).
I think that i have my certified, i need to do what? Create a waalet and sign with my token?
I am using Oracle Database 10g realease 2!
Please Help me.

Problem was due to a bug that won't allow to enter commas in Organization Name. All we needed to do is remove the comma from the Organization name and the certificate was correctly created.

Hi
Thanks. I have added my LDAP certificate to Oracle wallet.
Now my doubt is :
Before adding this cert to my wallet , i have tried to connect my application through SSL , am able to connect it.
I have used DBMS_LDAP.open_SSL function for conencting.
Before adding the new cert my wallet conatins :
ewallet.p12
cwallet.sso
GeoTrust.cer
Equifaxb64.cer
After adding the new cert also i am able to conenct through ssl my concern is , how we can figure out whether the ldap package checking my cert or not?
How DBMS_LDAP.open_SSL works?
Could anyone help me out to solve the issue?

Problem in importing a SHA256 X509 certificate in Oracle Wallet Manager 10g

Dear All,
As a certification authority, we stops issuing SHA1 X509 certificates and now we deliver only SHA256 Certificates. Some of our customers encounter problems when importing these new certificates in Oracle Wallet Manager 10g.
Is there any Oracle Security Updates able to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance

Importing Certificate in Oracle Wallet Manager fails

Hi,
We are using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2. When I try to import a certificate issued by a certificate authority, (using Operations > Import User Certificate), the wallet returns the following error:
User certificate installation failed.
Possible errors:
- Input was not a valid certificate
- No matching certificate request was found
- CA certificate needed for certificate chain not found. Please install it first
The certificate is obtained after raising a Certificate Request from the wallet manager.But I am not sure whether we have saved the wallet after raising the certificate request.
Now I have the certificate issued by the CA. Is there any way that I can import this certificate.? what is the possible solution?
Thanks & Regards,
Rafeek.

Did you import CA certificate as a trusted certificate before importing the user certificate. If not, import CA cert first. To make sure you have saved the certificate request, please open the wallet and see if it exists. Hope this helps.

How to import Verisign Intermediate certificate (char 2) with Oracle Wallet 10.1.0.5

Hi,
Recently I renewed a Verisign Certificate using Oracle Wallet 10.1.0.5 but could not apply one of the intermediate certificates (char2 encryption?). The error message is : "Some trusted certificates could not be installed:. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? A technician at Verisign told me that I need to contact Oracle for a patch. Is there such a patch for Oracle Wallet version 10.1.05?
Please help and thanks!
Jim.

Hi Jim,
Which certificate did you get renewed ? root certificate or a user certificate and is it using the same CSR or did you request it via a new CSR (certificate signing request)
Looks like the certificate chain is breaking when you are trying to import the intermediate certificate. The certs has to be imported in a order (root , intermediate and then user)

Using a SHA2 certificate with 12.1.1 (Oracle Wallet Manager 10.1.0.5)

Hi folks,
I'm trying to enable SSL on my 12.1.1 system, but I've got a bit of a problem.
I've already logged a SR on this, so I already know that you cannot use SHA2 SSL certificates with Oracle Wallet Manager 10.1.0.5, which is part of the 10.1.3 tech stack. I started the SR on the EBS side, but it was passed on to the security group, and closed there. My question is, is there something that I don't know? Is there an upgrade path in 12.1.x that would include an upgrade to the OWM, or is there some sort of workaround? I'll be opening another SR tomorrow, but wanted to see if I was missing something simple.
We have an internal certificate server (Microsoft AD), and the root certificate, which I need to import, is SHA2. I'm being told that they cannot generate a SHA1 root certificate, and would have to stand up another certificate authority. OWM 10.1.0.5 can't handle SHA2, so I'm stuck.
Anybody been there done that?
Thanks very much,
-Adam vonNieda

PURPOSE
To list the steps needed to configure Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) to use the Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) when installed with Oracle9i Application Server (9iAS)
Release 2 (9.0.2). The below instructions show, step by step, instructions for
obtaining a trial certificate from a Certificate Authority, such as Verisign or
Thawte. Please refer to the Oracle 9iAS Documentation for further details.
SCOPE AND APPLICATION
Oracle9i Application Server (9iAS) Release 2 (9.0.2 and above)
Configuring SSL with Oracle HTTP Server in 9iAS Release 2
There are two major steps needed to configure SSL in 9iAS:
I. Create an Oracle Wallet which contains an SSL Certificate
II. Configure httpd.conf directives to enable SSL with OHS
NOTE:
Only standard server certificates are supported. These are sometimes referred
to as "40-bit Certificates", but will allow 128-bit encryption provided the
browser supports 128-bit encryption. 9iAS Release 2 does not support Global
Server Certificates, called "128-bit Certificates", that allow 56-bit export
browsers to step up to 128-bit.
STEP I: Configuring Oracle Wallet Manager (OWM)
1. Start Oracle Wallet Manager from the 9iAS $ORACLE_HOME.
Note: If you wish to use AutoLogin features you must start OWM as the user
who owns the httpd parent process.
To start Oracle Wallet Manager:
On Windows: select Start > Programs > Oracle - ORACLE_HOME >
Integrated Management Tools > Wallet Manager
On UNIX: enter owm at the command line.
2. Create an Oracle Wallet which contains an SSL Certificate:
- Select Wallet -> New
- Enter a password for the wallet e.g Welcome1
- Create a Certificate Request.
- Enter the details for the request. For example:
     Common Name:          <hostname.domainname>
Organizational Unit:      Support
Organization:      Oracle
     Location:          Reading
     State:               Berkshire
     Country:          United Kingdom
     Key Size:          1024bits
* Common Name has to match the hostname.domainname that the webserver is
known as. This is the Servername parameter in the httpd.conf file, and
is the hostname.domainname that users will enter in the browser URL.
- Click OK.
- Click 'Certificate:[Requested]' and select from the Menu 'Operations' and
'Export Certificate Request'
- Save to a file e.g server.csr
- Open the file in a text editor and copy the contents of the certificate
signing request, to be pasted in a Certificate Authority (Verisign) form.
An example is shown below:
-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
MIIBtzCCASACAQAwdzELMAkGA1UEBhMCR0IxEjAQBgNVBAgTCWJlcmtzaGlyZTEQMA4GA1UEBxMH
cmVhZGluZzEPMA0GA1UEChQGb3JhY2xlMRAwDgYDVQQLFAdzdXBwb3J0MR8wHQYDVQQDFBZ1a2Ro

LiwpRB6do7MBrVgMRiv3AyTkJkgRzSxABWAgNpBPbhH+L6PZj5tSjOPErKA=
-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
3. Request a Certificate from a Certificate Authority:
- Load a web browser and go a Certificate Authority website of your choice.
The examples below are from www.thawte.com:
- Click on 'request your free trial'.
- Fill in the necessary name and address details etc. and 'Submit'.
- Paste in the certificate request into the box under the
'Certificate Signing Request' Section.
- Select "Test X509v3 SSL Cert" and hit "Generate Test Certificate"
- Once submitted the Trial Certificate will appear on screen similar to below:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
- Copy the certificate to a file called server.crt
- Get the Trusted CA Root certificate by accessing:
https://www.thawte.com/roots/index.html
- Copy the certificate that appears on the screen to a file called
servertest.crt
- Ftp or move the files to a directory on your server
- In Wallet Manager select Operations -> Import User Certificate.
- It will then ask you if you want to Paste the certificate or load
from a file. Choose 'Select a file that contains a certificate'.
- Select the file server.crt and hit OK.
- At this point, the Wallet Manager may complain that the Trusted CA Root
Certificate does not exist in the wallet. It will ask if you want to
import it now. Select Yes. See Below
- Select 'Select a file that contains a certificate' and select the
servertest.crt file.
- If this completes successfully you should see Certificate:[Ready] and the
Thawte Test CA Root will appear in the list of trusted certificates.
- If you desire Oracle HTTP Server to AutoLogin to the Wallet, then select
AutoLogin. (Wallet Manager must have been started as the owner of the
httpd parent process for this to work).
- From the menu, File -> Save
Save the Wallet in a directory where the 9iAS user has permission to access
* If you generated your test certificate via www.verisign.com there is an additional
step required if OWM is not accepting the Trusted CA Root Certificate. The step is
as follows:
In OWM, at the point of message "User certificate import has failed because the
CA certificate does not exist". You are expected to import the CA certificate.
For Verisign, that would be the 'Test CA Root' for the Trial version. Verisign's
email has instructions on how to download the Test CA Root. One problem with the
Test CA Root is that it is saved as DER encoding, but OWM expects BASE64 encoding.
Please do following, using Internet Explorer 5.X as example.
1. Following Verisign instructions and install Test CA Root
certification into IE.
2. Export 'Test CA Root' from IE in BASE64 format
Tools -> Internet Options -> Contents -> Certificates
-> Trusted Root Certificate Authorities
Select CA issued by Versign with following Description in 'Issued to' column
"For Versign authorized testing only ....."
Export -> Next -> select Base-64 encoded X.509(.cer)
The file saved must me accessible to OWM
3. When prompted to load 'CA certificate ', provide the Base64 encoded file.
Then, continue where you left off when OWM did not accept your Trusted CA
Root Certificate.
STEP II: Configuring Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)
Please review the default directives in the httpd.conf file that relate to SSL by
opening the file in a text editor and search on "SSL". If you have not already
done so, please make a back up of this file. Do NOT hand edit this file without reading
the precautions in the 9iAS Documentation. You should use the Enterprise Manager (EM)
Website to modify this file. For SSL to work, the SSL 'listen' port must match the
"VirtualHost _default_" directive within the file. All other SSL parameters are
set to the default, and you can modify at a later time, depending on your needs.
## SSL Support
Listen 80
Listen 443
#443 is the SSL port number.
##Further down in file:
<VirtualHost default:443>
For the purposes of a basic SSL configuration, you should only need to
change the following directives:
SSLWallet
SSLWalletPassword
- Change the SSLWallet directive to the path where you saved your wallet, i.e:
SSLWallet file:/tmp/wallets
- If you get an error, ADMN-906025 with exception 806212, when starting OHS
after modifying httpd.conf, it is because you need to supply this password.
You may also see errors such as the following:
Error Failed to restart HTTP Server.
Timeout has been reached. Timeout has been reached.
If you did not select AutoLogin, then you need to change the SSLWalletPassword
to your clear text Wallet password by adding the following into your httpd.conf
SSLWalletPassword <yourPassword>
- If you wish to encrypt the SSLWalletPassword refer to the following:
[NOTE:184677.1]
How to Use IASOBF to Encrpyt a Wallet Password Within 9iAS Release 2
- Save the configuration, and restart Oracle HTTP Server
- Test a URL to Oracle HTTP Server in SSL mode:
https://<hostname.domainname>:<port>

Oracle Wallet Manager Issue

Hi,
We are having a problem in importing user certificate using oracle wallet manager.
While adding a new certificate request, we gave the domain name as abacus.ofda.gov to generate the key but we are doing this on a different machine laharguard.ofda.gov.
Can we do this? If so how can I achieve this?
Thanks

Hi,
For the error you are getting, please check below points -
1. CA (Certificate Signer) certificate is there under trusted certificate list. If it is not, then first import the CA cert (with complete chain, if any) and then try to import the user cert.
2. User cert should be imported in the same wallet where CSR (Certificate Signing Request) is saved.
3. Certificate is valid in terms of it's date of expiry.
Remember, process of getting a server cert is below -
1. Generate a CSR and save it in a wallet.
2. Export the CSR from the wallet and send it to CA for signing.
3. Import the signed user cert in the same wallet after importing it's CA cert in this wallet (CA cert should be imported as Trusted Cert)
It is recommended to generate CSR at the same server where it will be used. In case server machine changes, please get a new cert for that otherwise it may cause problems during authentication.
Regards,
Anuj

Oracle Wallet Manager won't allow me to create a certificate request

Hello,
I am trying to setup my installation with SSL, I am trying to create a certificate request on Oracle Wallet Manager and I keep getting this error:
"Could not create certificate request. Please check user information"
I am entering the following information:
Common Name: portal.grupoalsea.com.mx
Organizational Unit: Desarrollo
Organization: Sistema Integral de Administracion, S.A. de C.V.
Locality/City: Distrito Federal
State/Province: Mexico
Country: Mexico
Key Size: 1024 bits
Why could this be happening? Does Oracle Wallet Manager go and look for my info some place? Common Name is the name for my site on WebCache, which is in turn mapped to the HTTP Server called Mservicio.localdomain.
At this point, I have also tried setting the Common Name to other values, like the name of my HTTP Server, the name of my HTTP server without the "localdomain", but I still get the same message.
Any help will be really appreciated!!!!

Problem was due to a bug that won't allow to enter commas in Organization Name. All we needed to do is remove the comma from the Organization name and the certificate was correctly created.

Oracle wallet user certificate and Appache certificate

We have Appache 2.0 application using certificate.
We have generated certificate request from the Oracle Wallet application.
Will the newly created certificate be still good for the Appache 2.0 (not Oracle Appache)?
TIA

Apparently, if you configure the wallet to have auto login enabled you do not need the password, I have not tried this myself yet though

Can't run wallet manager to generate certificate request

Hi!
I'm having some trouble running the wallet manager to generate a security certificate on a live application server box.
No matter what I do from the GUI I can't set the display variable correctly. I have tried EVERYTHING. It won't be set. And I can't restart or turn off the box as its a production machine and it's currently heavily in use.
If I try to use mkwallet logged in as oracle I just get 2 "Failed to create a certificate request" messages after:
1. running:
mkwallet -e pwd wrl
to generate an empty wallet
and 2. running:
mkwallet -r pwd wrl CN=domain.com, O=Business Name, L=Suburb, ST=State, C=AU 1024 certReqLoc
and if I try to run mkwallet as root I just get:
error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.10.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Advice greatly appreciated!!

You must repeatedly tap the F11 key at boot to get to the recovery manager.
Did you make recovery disks when you got the computer?
If not you may order them. If you live in the USA/Canada, call this number... 1-800-334-5144.
If you do not live in the USA/Canada, call the HP business PC support number for the country you live in.

Oracle Wallet using Global Server (128 bit) certificate?

Hi,
Does anyone know whether the Oracle Wallet Manager and Oracle Web Cache support 128 bit certificate? We have an application that require strong enryption (preferably on 128 bit rather than 40 bit) and it is accessed through Oracle Web Cache. We want to import a 128 bit certifcate into an Oracle Wallet but not sure whether this feature is supported or not. As we are based in Australia so we are not sure whether there is any difference in terms of version (e.g. export version vs us version).
Oracle Wallet Manager: 2.1
Oracle Web Cache: 2.0.0.2.0
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Patrick

You should be using Web Cache 9.0.2.0 if at all possible.
In terms of certificate size, the normal ones are 512 and 1024.
You may be thinking of whether we can support 128-bit encryption between client and server. The answer is yes.
