I have a Windows Server 2016, SIF and Sitecore Fundamentals installed where I am trying to provision a Sitecore 9 XP1
Here is the error I am seeing
CERT:\LocalMachine\My\210E7393A00B188EEB841E22CB09BA5660D6C3E9 does not contain Private Key
I generated self-signed certificates for XConnect and XConnect Collection using a Powershell command
New-SelfSignedCertificate -DNSName xconnect.local -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My
New-SelfSignedCertificate -DNSName xconnectcollection.local -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My
Then I have exported the certificate as PFX
$sslPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString "P@ssw0rd" -Force -AsPlainText
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert cert:\LocalMachine\My\210E7393A00B188EEB841E22CB09BA5660D6C3E9 -FilePath C:\temp\xconnectlocal.pfx -Password $sslPassword
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert cert:\LocalMachine\My\0486F9D98837A08726A238E1431F010B5256E99A -FilePath C:\temp\xconnectcollectionlocal.pfx -Password $sslPassword
And manually imported on Trusted Root Certification
On xconnect-xp1-collection.json, I have modified the SSLCert to match XConnectCollection Thumbprint
"SSLCert": {
"Type": "string",
"Description": "The certificate to use for HTTPS web bindings. Provide the name or the thumbprint. If not provided a certificate will be generated.",
"DefaultValue": "0486F9D98837A08726A238E1431F010B5256E99A"
When prompted during the SIF process, XConnectCert I then add the Thumbprint from XConnect.local SSL
Finally, I receive the 210E7393A00B188EEB841E22CB09BA5660D6C3E9 does not contain Private Key error
I have seen other similar questions
However, none of these solved my issue.
Any ideas what might causing the issue?
