hi, i'm using xampp 1.8.2-6 all is going fine with apache, created certificate using the makecert.bat which comes in the apache folder then i got the server.crt and server.key sucessfully updated in the conf/ folder however:
1- the csr file server.csr still not updated at all, it see its date very long since March, is there something wrong with the creation of the certificate?
2- i have this server inside the local network, i can browse the server using https://office1 but there is red-mark and privacy issue shows that this is not in the CA root authority bla bla and https line cross which is also scary on Chrome says that privacy concern bla bla bla
- what i can do from the server side to make this appear as green, or at least not to warn the user that certificate is not assigned by trusted authority? is it essential to buy a certificate and pay money for that? or i can do something locally? please note that this server is internal only inside the office, not exposed to the internet, hence noway for chrome or other browser to check the certificate? not sure about t
- is it related to csr? to local server name? should be FQDN name? ip address?
any information in this regard will be highly appreciated
Mike
