Hello

I've found a workaround:
Cold reset!
After reconfiguring the PDA certificate installation works properly.

Regards

  Dear experts

  I would like to add the root certificate from my own CA to my PDA (Dell Axim X3i, Windows Mobile 2003) and here are my steps:

  * install cert into IE on my desktop
  * export DER version of cert from IE
  * copy .cer file to PDA
  * click on the .cer in the File Explorer tool
  * click on "yes" to the "Do you want to install ..., a certificate issued by ...?"

  At that last step, I get an error dialog with "Cannot access certificate".
  It's able to read the .cer file ('cause it shows who it was issued by...).

  Any ideas?

  Thanks for your trouble in advance.
  Best regards
