SSL CertGen & Private key import errors - 7.0

I am trying to install weblogic generated ssl certificate and because the private
key needs to be encrypted with a password, i am loading this in a new JDK keystore
and trying to configure WL.
I am running utils.CertGen from weblogic 7.0 sp3 on XP.

I went ahead and ran the same CertGen on unix and got the certificate file and
the key file
to my box to check to see if i can install it. I created a new keystore with keytool,
loaded the private key with the alias and the password phrase, made this key store
the default keystore, supplied the management password, changed the files to read
the new cert file and key file.
Attached is the log for the SSL debug.
Do i need to import the private key stored in the JDK for weblogic ? I tried doing
that by running.

Try this on 8.1 and see if it works. There was a bug fix with respect to "_"

A fatal error when attempting to access the SSL server credential private key. Error code 0x8009030d. Windows 8.1.

Hi,
We develop a server-side application which receives incoming https connections using self-signed certificate. It was all ok while we were using Windows 7 or Windows 2008 as OS, but when our clients started installing Windows 8 as server OS they encountered
big problem: application got unavailable in few hours after start.
In event logs we have following:
A fatal error occurred when attempting to access the SSL server credential private key. The error code returned from the cryptographic module is 0x8009030d. The internal error state is 10001.
After restart, application recreates certificate and all works normal few hours till next fatal error.
This
article did not help us. And I repeat that this error appears only on Windows 8 (we tested on Windows 8.1). Windows 2012 Server we did not test yet.
How we can solve this problem?
Best regards.

Hi,
Since this article released in 2008,I suspect the code mentioned in this article doesn't supprot Windows 8.
And since the certificate was written by C#,I suggest you submit a new case on MSDN Forum as they will be more professional on your issue:

Private key import via ImportPrivateKey

I used the Certificate web app included with WLS 7.0 SP1 to generate my private
key and my CSR. I then used the CSR to request a certificate from my Dept. of
Defense Certificate Authority. I received my certificate. I then tried to use
the WLS ImportPrivateKey utility to import my key with the following steps as
shown in the ImportPrivateKey reference example.
1) I used keytool -printcert to verify the contents of my servercert.pem file
and my CAcert.pem file.
2) I combined the certificate returned for my server with the CA's root certificate
cat servercert.pem CAcert.pem > combined.pem
3) I converted my private key file produced by the Certificate web app to pem
format using the WLS der2pem utility
4) I ran the Import utility
java utils.ImportPrivateKey serverkey.jks store_pwd key_alias key_pwd combined.pem
server_private_key.pem.
I received the following error.
ImportPrivateKey will create serverkey.jks

SSL & generated private key

I generated a CSR with the certificate servlet. I modified
config.xml in order to set the right files :

The serverkey.der is a copy of the file generated by the
certificate servlet.

Need help !

Agree with S Guna, the ISP/Certificate Authority won't generate the private key, the request from your Lync server does. So the private key is already sitting on your Lync 2010 Server. Once you import the certificate generated by the certificate
authority, the private key and certificate should be paired and can be assigned to Lync.

WebLogic and SSL: supplying private key password upon startup

Hello,
Does BEA have an API I can use to customize the WebLogic Server startup? I have
a password callback function that I would like the WebLogic Server to call when
it needs the password for decrypting the server certificate private key...

NAC and SSL - fails to import password protected private key

I am attempting to import an SSL certificate on my CCA Manager and Server. I purchased a wild card SSL cert *.domain.com. The private key used to generate the certificate was created on an Cisco ACS 3.2 server and has a password. When attempting to import the private key into the CCA Manager the browser times out and no error is reported.
My guess is that it is waiting for the password to allow access to the private key. Unfortunately there is no place on the form and no pop-up to enter the password.
Is there a command line option for importing a private key that may work for me?
Thanks
Sherm

The best Possible way is to generate a CSR from the CCA server and then purchase a certificate using that CSR. Then you dont have problems with private keys.

Import an SSL Private Key

Hello. Is it possible to export the Private Key from, say, my J2EE engine (I'm running a dual stack) and import it into my ABAP instance so that both systems use the same Private Key? They both have the same host name.

I guess its possible. Please correct me if i am wrong.
Please keep in mind, that simply importing a certificate as a certificate response won't work in this situation, since the public key from your CA and the public key in the individual PSEs already existing on the respective servers won't match.
following steps all the key pairs and certificates that are currently stored in the SSL Server PSEs on the target systems will be removed. If you want to keep them, you'll need to export them to a safe place.
Step 1: import the key pair into a PSE
Since pl.16 of SAPCRYPTOLIB, key pairs given in the format PKCS#12 can be imported into a PSE (note 745063). Since pl.24 of SAPCRYPTOLIB, also the import of key pairs given as PKCS#5, PKCS#8 or OpenSSL-PEM is supported (note 1159829).
Step 2: import the PSE resulting from Step 1) into the system's database All PSEs that are known to transaction STRUST will be exported from the database and distributed to the application servers at system startup. The related PSE files will be overwritten. So, the PSE resulting from the key pair import in step 1) needs to be imported into the database.
You'll need to go through a procedure similar to the one described in note 1178155, step 3.
- Copy the PSE from step 1) to your workstation/PC
- Start transaction STRUST
- Doubleclick the "FILE" icon in the navigation area (left hand side)
- Select the PSE on your workstation/PC
- Execute the menu item "PSE --> save as..." and choose the SSL Server
PSE as target. This will save the PSE from step 1 as SSL Server
standard PSE.
- The following step is a modification from note 1178155 which is
only applicable in your special situation: right mouse button click
on the SSL Server PSE entry in the navigation area. From the context
menu appearing, select "Change".
- Remove the distinguished names from all application server specific
PSEs in the list. Pressing the green tick mark ('save') will remove
all application server specific SSL Server PSEs, so the system is
forced to use the SS Server standard PSE instead.
Don't forget to restart the ICM in order to make your changes become effective.

Jazz

SChannel error- The SSL server credential's certificate does not have a private key information property attached to it.

We have a public SSL certificate that allows for Active Directory sync with LDAPS on port 636 with our email smart host. This was working fine and suddenly stopped working and we are now getting SChannel errors Event ID 36869. There were no changes made
to the Exchange server, the firewall or the DC which holds the certificate. I have run a new certreq from the DC and then re-keyed the public SSL certificate and re-installed 3 times but the error does not go away and AD Sync with the vendor
fails. When I run LDP.exe the connection on port 636 fails with "cannot open connection" and the system event log throws the S Channel event 36869 "The SSL server credential's certificate does
not have a private key information property attached to it" There is no software firewall set on the DC. When I run Certutil -VerifyStore MY it shows the current certificates as well as the revoked and expired certificates
correctly. Certificate 0 is the public cert and is listed with Server and Client authentication, the FQDN of the server is correct and "Certificate is Valid" is listed. The private cert is Certificate 1 and has server and client authentication, the
FQDN is correct, Private key is not exportable and it ends with Certificate is Valid. I do not see a point in re-keying the cert again until I figure out what the root of the problem is. I have read in some forums that the private cert should not be set to
expire after the public cert but that does not make a lot of sense when in a situation like this the private cert is of course newer than the public. In fact it is too early to renew the public cert. I have been troubleshooting this for a few days and at this
point I would have to drop my AD sync with the vendor to LDAP in order to add new users. I do not want to do that for obvious reasons and I do not want to have our spam filtering and email archive service running without Directory sync. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Exporting SSL Private Key

In the midst of an apocalyptic SSL install in 10.4 server. Currently, I am trying to install a wildcard cert via Server Admin, which may have been a mistake. After smashing my head for a week, I tried a new tack and rebuilt the system keychain and attempted to install the certificate; this failed at the level of Server Admin. However, in Keychain Access I am showing the SSL cert, public and private keys, and the CA's cert, all valid.
Since I know of no other way to do get KA talking to SA so that I can actually use this certificate, I am trying to export the valid certs and keys to import. My problem is this, the certs and public key export fine, the private key fails returning an error of Unable to Export CLINTERNALERROR. I double checked that root is enabled in netinfo. Any ideas on how to rectify this?

I believe you have to run Keychain Access as root to export the private key.

Symptom:
When you execute a query with virtual characteristics or key figures, the system issues the following error message:
Object FIELD I_S_DATA-<key figure> not found
Other terms

Reason and Prerequisites
This problem is caused by a program error.
Solution
If the virtual characteristics or key figures are implemented using the enhancement RSR00002 (CMOD), implement the corrections.
If the virtual characteristics or key figures were created directly as implementations of the RSR_OLAP_BADI BAdI, compare the source code of the INITIALIZE method with the corresponding source code example. During the call of GET_FIELD_POSITIION_D, <L_S_SK>-VALUE_RETURNNM must be transferred instead of <L_S_SFK>-KYFNM.

HI Rayyaan,
This is a key which you cannot share so that i can try here on my and see what is going on so i would suggested contacting your CA vendor and ask them to provide the key and cert in PEM format. Once you have that try it again. That's all i guess we can do here or you can open a TAC case and see what is going on. If the key is in PEM format ACE shouldn't have any problem in accepting it.
From user guide:
Importing Certificate and Key Pair Files
The ACE supports the importation of PEM-encoded key pairs and certificates (including wildcard certificates) signed by keys. The ACE allows a maximum public key size of 4096 bits. The maximum private key size is 2048 bits.
You can import a certificate or key pair file to the ACE from a remote server by using the crypto import command in Exec mode. You can import either individual certificates and keys or multiple certificates and keys. Because a network device uses its certificate and corresponding public key together to prove its identity during the SSL handshake, be sure to import both the certificate file and its corresponding key pair file.
The ACE supports the importation of PEM-encoded SSL certificates and keys with a maximum line width of 130 characters using the terminal. If an SSL certificate or key is not wrapped or it exceeds 130 characters per line, use a text editor such as the visual (vi) editor or Notepad to manually wrap the certificate or key to less than 130 characters per line. Alternatively, you can import the certificate or key by using SFTP, FTP, or TFTP with no regard to line width

SSL private key password

something else? The physical machine the instances are located is the same
and IP address and the DNS entry hasn't been changed, either.
Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Tony - it worked!!
"Tony" <TonyV> wrote in message news:[email protected]...
It may be because the private key is both unprotected and in DER format.
There are some things to try:
1) Convert the private key file from a DER file to a PEM file and try
that:
a) Follow the for converting an unprotected private key at:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/adminguide/utils.html#1143743
b) Look at the resulting PEM file, it should look something like
this:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
(Be sure there is no extra lines or whitespace after thefooter)
>
c) Change your configuration to point at the PEM file
If that doesn work, then you can try protecting the key with apassword
using
the wlkeytool utility (It should be in the server/bin directory). The
tool should prompt
for a password to use to protect it:
wlkeytool inputkey.pem outputkey.pem
Then change your configuration to use the protected private key, andset
the passwod to use.

Private key error

I used the certificate app to create a Private Key file (in .der format)
and a .pem request.
But when I specify it in the SSL section and reatsrt the server I get an
error message:
Any Ideas ?
Also When I double click the .der file even Windows says its an "Invalid
Security Certificate File"
WLS 6.1 SP3
Also I think the error is deceiving since the file is present in the
directory referred by WLS
Thanks in advance

I got the problem.
I simply created a new request thru the 'certificate' app and got a new
trial id and it worked !

I used the certificate app to create a Private Key file (in .der format)
and a .pem request.
But when I specify it in the SSL section and reatsrt the server I get an
error message:
Any Ideas ?
Also When I double click the .der file even Windows says its an "Invalid
Security Certificate File"
WLS 6.1 SP3
Also I think the error is deceiving since the file is present in the
directory referred by WLS
Thanks in advance

WBL 7.0 and SSL private key problem

Having generated certificate request, and associated private key, I obtained
the corresponding server level certificate. I am having problems starting the
server with the cert. I have configured my server appropriately, here is the SSL
configuration from the domain config.xml
<SSL Enabled="true" HostnameVerificationIgnored="true"
ListenPort="8090" Name="SampleServer"
ServerCertificateChainFileName="nasaca.pem"
ServerCertificateFileName="mydomain-cert.pem"
ServerKeyFileName="mydomain-key.pem"/>
and I am using -Dweblogic.management.pkpassword=mypassword
in the startup script, however I get :
java.lang.Exception: Cannot read private key from file /usr/user_projects/Sample/mydomain-key.pem.
Make sure password specified in environment property weblogic.management.pkpassword
is valid.
I have given the right password. So the question is why am I seeing the error
I am running this server on Sun Solaris. The password contains the usual ascii
characters, including shell special characters.
Any way checking the private key file ?
Also as we have seen problems with the particular certificate we get from the
CA, I wanted to use "utils.ValidateCertChain", alas this documented utility is
conveniently missing from weblogic.jar. Oh big blue, why didn't we go with you
Seriously, please help

SSL: how to use Multiple Private key/Certificate pair for authentication.

Hi all,
i am implementing SSL in java using X509 Certificate/private key combination.
i have two set of private key/certificate pair.
one is factory default and another is generated at run time.
my problem is to try ssl connection with both pairs on same tcp/ip connection.
e.g. on server side: first try ssl connection with factory default certificate, if it fails try connecting with generated certificate on same tcp/ip connection.
on client side: if generated certificate(this certificate was generated at server side) is present first perform server authentication using this certificate otherwise authenticate server with factory default certificate.
can someone please help and let me know how do i need to configure both ends(client and server) for achieving the same.
Thanks In Advance

Client code does not contain any default truststore and needs a certificate for authentication.Of course it does. OpenSSL has a way of doing that: some kind of equivalent for the truststore. None of the stuff you've posted here about generating certificates at runtime has any bearing on that problem.
It's like this. The idea of PKI with SSL is as follows:
- the server has a private key and a signed certificate. Preferably it's signed by a CA that the client already trusts, otherwise if it's self-signed it has to be exported from the server's keystore and imported into the truststores of all the clients.
- the client has a truststore that trusts the server, one way or the other, see above.
- the server's private key is private to it. Nobody else has it. Nobody else can ever get it. If it ever leaks, the server is compromised, and server authentication via that private key now means absolutely nothing. You have lost security.
- the server sends its cert to the client along with a digital signature signed by its private key.
- the client (a) decides whether it trusts the cert, via its truststore, and (b) verifies the digital signature, which establishes that the server owns the certificate.
At this point the server is authenticated to the client and the SSL connection is open. It can now be used as an ordinary socket connection.
If you want client authentication too, you need all the above in reverse as well, i.e. reading server for client and client for server throughout. Note particularly that each client must have its own private key. Otherwise the private key isn't private, so signing something with it doesn't establish ownership, so client authentication isn't valid.
You need to understand all this stuff and relate it to the apparently broken security design of your application. Generating a private key and a certificate at runtime is complete nonsense within the context of PKI and SSL. It proves nothing, establishes nothing, authenticates nothing; it just wastes time.
