localhost: Not a Certification Authority #1

Closed

Description

@mondalaci

I was able to execute minica --domains localhost successfully, then my web server could successfully use the generated files. Then I exported the root CA of the generated cert in Chrome, and upon trying to import it, I got the following error:

localhost: Not a Certification Authority

Any ideas about this?

    @mondalaci How did you export the root CA from Chrome? It sounds like you perhaps exported the leaf end-entity certificate.

    @cpu That may have been a case. I didn't even notice that selecting a leaf actually affects the export. Now I know better. In any case, I've eventually managed to generate a self-signed certificate that works. Sorry for the noise, and thank you for your help!
