SSL certificate signed
-
I also had what most had.
Added the Class 1 & 3 root certificate from https://www.cacert.org/index.php?id=3 as CA's.
Then I added the Certificate I generated :-
Method is : Import an Existing Certificate
-
Descriptive name : SSL Firewall certificate
-
Certificate data :```

but when I select that certificate to be used the webConsole becomes inaccessible :'(
System log contains :

Maybe this?

If it has a problem reading the file or the file is corrupt, that may trigger your issue.

You are trying to install a CSR (Certificate signing request) as a certificate. You need to get the certificate issued to you and install that.
–---BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
-
No. You installed your certificate as a CA. You need to install the StartSSL Class 1 Intermediate Server certificate as a CA. Delete the Web gui linux from CAs and install this.

-----END CERTIFICATE-----After that, when you look at your certificate, it should show as being issued by that cert (Issuer)…
DISCLAMER: I'm not trying to be an asshole or anything like that!
I really appreciate your response but yet again using your instructions I got locked out. Can you or someone else explain (screenshot if possible) steps taken to get this working. I've tried so many explanations online and they all worked but this simple one seems such a road block! Call me dumb but I do not get where the problem is.
I promise once I get it to work I will create a video tutorial so anyone can get it to work without any lock outs.

Here https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=63791.0 - last message, you will find a PDF with a lot of images.
The PDF talks about adding a certificate for captive Portal access, but, I used it to add a certificate for WebGUI access.
-
You know you could of just used pfsense self signed cert.. All you have to do is install the pfsense CA into your machine so that certs signed by that CA are trusted. There is no reason to get a cert from startssl or anyplace be it free or not.
The only time you would need a cert from a public trusted CA would be for say our portal when clients that have not trusted pfsense CA would hit the page via https
I'm giving up on StartSSL and was wondering if you explain more this method "All you have to do is install the pfsense CA into your machine so that certs signed by that CA are trusted." ?

That's too bad.
No certificate authority is going to work for you when you do things like upload CSRs as certificates, upload your certificate as both the certificate and intermediate CA cert.
-
Perhaps this could eventually be automated with https://letsencrypt.org/ - someone's apparently already working on the port.
-
There is not much to go over - create a CA in the CA manager. Create a Certificate and use as your web gui cert..
Download that CA cert and put it in your trusted CAs on your machine.
This is fine for your use, or even employee use that you would roll out this CA as trusted, but this is not really good for user of machines that you do not control - like captive portal with guests, etc. For those such certs you need one by a public Trusted CA like verisign or startssl, etc.

hi;
ok i had to do this for https filtering in pfsense i generated the key in pfsense and downloaded it then sudo to ca certs folder made new folder renamed key to .crt file and a etc /cert area then did sudo update-ca-certificates (ubuntu 18.04 based distro) to import and it worked with the message no perm key found or the like,
because before doing this you can go nowhere in the net with out that key /crt in or the perm . so I killed https filter and went back to stock squid but still maybe having av scanner issue on fresh install pf 2.4.4 .
A lot has changes for me with squid and the setup so still getting pass the new stuff. swore I read https filtering has to be on now as fixed clamav scanning issue I may be wrong but it is a good thing
