An exception occurred while
getting local certificate by friendly name
Issue: An exception occurred while getting local certificate
by friendly name
Cause: This issue occurs because IIS Manager performs a
lookup operation to look for a friendly name of the certificate during the
installation. However, the code that performs this lookup operation misses this
specific case, and it does not know how to retrieve the friendly name of a
certificate in a PKCS#7 file. Therefore, the lookup operation fails, and you
receive the error message
Solution: To resolve this problem, add a friendly name to the
certificate. To do this, follow these steps:
1.
Click Start,
click Run, type certmgr.mmc, and then click OK.
2.
Click File,
click Add/Remove Span-ins.
3.
Select Certificates,
and click Add, and then click OK.
4.
Select Computer
account, and click Next, and then click Finish.
5.
Click OK.
6.
Expand Certificates
(Local Computer), and Personal, and then Certificates.
7.
Right-click
the certificate, and then click Properties.
8.
Edit the Friendly
name field and put as required.
