Re: Unable to install Godaddy cert on SBS R2 Standard box

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi John,

Thanks for posting back.

I suspect the root cause is that the certificate is not installed on the
local server.

To install a certificate in Certificate Server, let's follow these steps:

1. Open the Internet Services Manager and expand the server name so that
you can view the Web sites.
2. Right-click the Web site that you created the certificate request for,
and click Properties.
3. Click the Directory Security tab. Under Secure Communications, click
Server Certificate.
This opens the Certificate Installation Wizard. Click Next to continue.
4. Select Process the pending request and install the certificate and click
Next.
5. Type the location of the certificate that you downloaded, and then click
Next.
The Wizard displays the Certificate Summary. Verify that the information is
correct, and then click Next to continue.
6. Click Finish to complete the process.

After installing the certificate on the local machine, this certificate
should be trusted by the Trusted Authority and we should no longer receive
the error when running the CEICW Wizard.

If issue persists,Please refer to the following steps to see if it
helps,regarding intermediate certificate,Please consult to godaddy.

I will summarize process for anyone else who might be trying to install a
certificate from godaddy.
1. Within IIS, remove the publishing certificate.
2. Create a new certificate request.
3. Submit the request to godaddy and get the certificate.
4. Install the intermediate certificate (open MMC, add the certificates
snap-in, and import the sf_issuing.cer certificate into Intermediate
Certificates). The intermediate certificate can be downloaded from
godaddy's web site.
5. After installing the intermediate certificate (it will not work if you
do not), run the CEICW and specify the certificate that was sent to you.
Finish the wizard as normal.

In addition,do you use crt file? not cer file? Please use cer file from
godaddy.

Hope this helps


Have a nice day!
