CiscoWorks VMS "Server Certificate Expired"

[9tgonzalez]

I'm getting a message saying my Server Certificate Expired when I use Management Center for IPS Sensors.

I found bug CSCsa88926 that has Workaround:

Generate a new SSL certificate:

Stop the daemon manager (net stop crmdmgtd)

From:

$INSTALL_ROOT\CSCOpx\MDC\Apache\conf\ssl

run:

..\..\gencert

Restart the daemon manager (net start crmdmgtd)

But this fails to generate new cert keys.

Anybody have any idea what to do?

there is a command line gen cert command to let you generate a new certificate.

I can't remember the exact syntax but I have used it in the past to generate a longer lifetime certificate than the default - I'm sure you will find it somewhere on CCO
