"webConfigurator default" certificate

conbonbur

Hello, everyone.
Unfortunately i made a mistake, i deleted the certificate named "webConfigurator default" .
I ask is there a possibility to regenerate it?
Or since i have old backups of the configuration can i reimport it?
Thank you.

How did you delete it?
Was it even assigned to the webConfigurator?

The webGUI don't let you delete a certificate which is in use. So check in System > Advanced > Admin Access, which is assigned to the webGUI.

Yes, you can restore it from a config backup. It should be within the System section.

@conbonbur just create a new one.

Or use another cert for your web gui. I create one via pfsense cert manager from a CA created, and set my browsers to trust that CA.. Now the browser doesn't complain about a self signed cert.

Hello.
I apologize for the late response.
The guide command solved my problem.
I thank you.

@conbonbur :

Like the solution of johnpoz, which needed the console or SSH access, you could also use option 15 :

0) Logout (SSH only)                  9) pfTop
1) Assign Interfaces                 10) Filter Logs
2) Set interface(s) IP address       11) Restart webConfigurator
3) Reset webConfigurator password    12) PHP shell + Netgate pfSense Plus tools
4) Reset to factory defaults         13) Update from console
5) Reboot system                     14) Disable Secure Shell (sshd)
6) Halt system                       15) Restore recent configuration
7) Ping host                         16) Restart PHP-FPM
8) Shell

Use a config that was made just before de deletion.

Just for my own curiosity : deleted in the GUI, you were not using it ? Something else ?
