The process described in this page will let an administrator replace the default DPOD Web Console and Admin Console certificate with one signed by the organization.

Before You Begin

You will need:

Access to the DPOD appliance
The new certificate and key files

Process

Log in to DPOD's appliance.
Copy the new certificate and key file either to the current certificate directory on the DPOD appliance or to any other directory of your choice.
The current certificate directory is:
```
/etc/httpd/conf/certs
```
Open the web server configuration file for editing:
```
vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
```
Update the SSL Certificate lines:
```
SSLCertificateFile "the new certificate file path"
SSLCertificateKeyFile "the new key file path"
```
SSLCertificateKeyFile needs to point to a key of a "PEM" format.
SSLCertificateFile needs to point to a certificate of a "DER" format.

The certificate / key can not be stored in a keystore (JKS, PKCS)
Restart the web server
```
service httpd restart
```

Troubleshooting

Run syntax check on httpd configuration file to make sure certificate and key file path are valid:
```
apachectl -t
```
Valid output should be : "Syntax OK"
Wrong certificate path : "SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/httpd/conf/certs/DPOD.cer' does not exist or is empty"

Make sure certificate and key file format are valid

Check key file format

openssl rsa -in DPOD.key -check
