I've discovered that we have a SSL certificate problem. When I check Configuration - SSL Certificates - Certificate Details, I see the warning "Untrusted certificate - unable to get certificate CRL".

I then checked the Kerio Connect Error Log and found that this has been a problem since last year. The repeating error is

[11/Sep/2019 07:29:16] cert_mgr.cpp: Cannot open SSL certificate file C:\Program Files\Kerio\MailServer/sslcert/server1.crt : error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory
I checked the directory referenced in the error message and indeed there was no file "server1.crt". There were three files...


  • server.crt
  • server.key
  • server1.key
I searched our backup files and could find no instance of "server1.crt".

We got the key from GoDaddy in 2018 and it was supposed to be good for 11/5/2018 - 11/5/2020.

Do I need to delete and then re-install the certificate?

For good measure, I would redownload the certificate and install it, then delete the old one as it should show up as a separate entry.

Please post back here once you've done that with your results so we build up the value of the forum.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon

In the interest of documenting the process, here is how I re-installed our SSL certificate, supplied by GoDaddy, in Kerio Connect.


  • In Kerio Connect Console
  • In Kerio Connect Console, go to Configuration - SSL Certificate.
  • Open New - New Certificate Request.
  • Fill in the hostname. I filled in the other fields accept "Organization unit" but that doesn't get used in the certificate. Then click "OK".
  • Open the resulting .csr entry and copy the contents of the encrypted text box.
  • Log into GoDaddy acct.
  • Go to the "Certificates" page.
  • Select the certificate you want to process.
  • Select "ReKey & Manage".
  • Click the "+" icon next to "Rekey certificate".
  • Paste the text you copied from the Kerio .csr into the CSR text box on GoDaddy.
  • Click "Save".
  • Click "Submit All Saved Changes".
  • Go back to the "Certficates" screen. You should see a "Pending" status. This will update ( in my case about 3 minutes).
  • When the status changes to "Certificate issued", click on the certificate name.
  • In the next screen, click on "Download"
  • In the next screen, click the "Server Type" drop-down and select "Other".
  • Then click "Download Zip File".
  • Save the file to a location accessible to your Kerio Connect server.
  • Unzip the file.
  • In Kerio Connect Console, go to Configuration - SSL Certificate.
  • Select "Import - "Import Signed Certificate from CA"
  • In the resulting screen, click on "Select" from the "Certificate file" box.
  • Navigate to where you unzipped the GoDaddy file and select the .crt file with the hexedicimal name.
  • Click "Import". Now there will be two "Go Daddy Secure Certificate Authority - G2" entries. In our case, the non-funtioning one will have an amber "!" next to it and the other will have a green "checkmark".
  • Opposite mouse-click on the green certificate and make it the default.
  • Remove the non-functioning certificate.
I went back to the directory "C:\Program Files\Kerio\MailServer/sslcert" and now there is a "server1.key" file present.

Life is good.

after adding revoked/new Certificate you need to restart your Kerio Services from Kerio Server then your SSL Certificate will show green.
