Error message when completing a certificate request on IIS 7.5
If you tried to complete (means the request has been submitted from the same server) a certificate request on IIS 7.5 and got the following message : Cannot find the certificate request associated with this certificate file. A certificate request must be completed on the computer where it was created. You can simply try to click on Cancel and refresh the window. This is mostly a bug of IIS and the certificate could be installed anyway. If not, try the following method : Import the certificate using mmc.exe and the Certificate addin in Personnal Certificates' store: When the certificate is imported, find and copy the serial of this certificate: Remove the unnecessary spaces of the serial number and run the following command : certutil –repairstore my <serial number> The certificate should now be imported and visible in the IIS interface #1 #2
