Error When Install the Certificate to F5

Hello DC,

 

I just got a problem when I was trying to upload the certificate to the F5 BIG-IP then it appeared a message as below:

 

01070712:3: unable to validate certificate, invalid x509 file

 

Anyone have idea about this problem?

 

Thanks!!

    Hi, if you export the certificate from Windows Probably the Certificate is DER Decoded, Try to Export it again using Base-64 option. Hope it helped...

      Hello ShiranCohen,

       

      Yes, the CSR was generated from the same F5 BIG-IP device.
