Domain certificate not working

Hi,

I installed Openmeetings 504 on a virtual Ubuntu 18.04 Server, following the instructions of the newest tutorial. As far as I can tell, everything works fine.

Now, I am trying to replace the selfsigned certificate and use a domain-certificate instead, following the information from: https://openmeetings.apache.org/HTTPS.html#real-certificate. But after this and after a reboot - the https-site is not avaiable anymore (site cannot be found). I am a bit at loss here about what to do now.

Here is what I did:

First Attempt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

cd /opt/open504/conf
sudo mv localhost.jks localhost.org
sudo keytool -keysize 4096 -genkey -alias openmeetings -keyalg RSA -storetype PKCS12 -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks
Old password:           PassW0rd
New password:           PassW0rd
Name (Websitename):     myserver
(...)

sudo keytool -certreq -keyalg RSA -alias openmeetings -file openmeetings.csr -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks
sudo cp openmeetings.csr /media/netshare

Here, I opened the website of my domain-CA, which is a Server 2012 R2 Windows Server (https://issuingca/certsrv/)
I chose: request a certificate.
I chose: advanced certificate request.
I chose: submit a certificate request by using a base-64-encoded (...).
I opened the request-file (openmeetings.csr) in a texteditor and used copy & paste to hand in my request.
I chose "Web Server" as certificate-template and start the request.
I download the certificate as Base-64-Certificate (cer-filetype) - the certificate is valid.
I copy this certificate and the certificate of my root and my issuing CA onto my netshare, so I can access it from my OpenMeetings-Linux-Server.

cd /opt/open504/conf
sudo cp /media/netshare/root.crt root.crt
sudo cp /media/netshare/issuing.cer issuing.cer
sudo cp /media/netshare/myserver.cer myserver.cer
sudo keytool -import -alias root -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks -trustcacerts -file root.crt
sudo keytool -import -alias intermed -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks -trustcacerts -file issuing.cer
sudo keytool -import -alias openmeetings -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks -trustcacerts -file myserver.cer

==>     No errors so far.

sudo reboot now
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
sudo /etc/init.d/kurento-media-server start
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat3 start

==>     HTTPS-Website is not available.

Second Attempt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I found out, that the certificate-template "Web Server" may not be right. It says, the maximum is 2048.
So I created a new template ("Web Server 4096") and changed the length to 4096.
I also checked the option, that the private key is exportable.
I started from the beginning - same result.

Third Attempt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After that, I started again, but this time I tried to request a 2048-certificate and to use the original certificate-template:
sudo keytool -keysize 2048 -genkey -alias openmeetings -keyalg RSA -storetype PKCS12 -keystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks
Same result.

Fourth Attempt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also tried to use this manual: https://openmeetings.apache.org/HTTPS.html#create-keystore-using-existing-key-pair
But I do not have a server-key.
I can create a valid certificate on my CA-website (https://issuingca/certsrv/) and I can use openssl in order to create p12/pfx- and key-files, but I don't know how to import them, since I don't have a matching request on my Ubuntu-/OpenMeetings-Server.

Fifth Attempt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also tried to create a key-file from the certificate I imported using the first manual (https://openmeetings.apache.org/HTTPS.html#real-certificate) and then use this key-file with the second manual (https://openmeetings.apache.org/HTTPS.html#create-keystore-using-existing-key-pair).
sudo keytool -v -importkeystore -srckeystore keystore -srcalias openmeetings -destkeystore myserver.p12 -deststoretype PKCS12
[from here in a Windows-commandline)
openssl pkcs12 -in myserver.p12 -nocerts -out myserver_enc.key
openssl pkcs12 -in myserver.p12 -clcerts -nokeys -out myserver.crt
openssl rsa -in myserver_enc.key -out myserver.key

sudo keytool -importkeystore -srcstorepass PassW0rd -srckeystore myserver.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -deststorepass PassW0rd -destkeystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks -alias openmeetings -deststoretype PKCS12
==>     Alias openmeetings not found
sudo keytool -importkeystore -srcstorepassPassW0rd -srckeystore myserver.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -deststorepass PassW0rd -destkeystore /opt/open504/conf/localhost.jks -deststoretype PKCS12
==>     Alias openmeetings already existing (???), overwrite? Yes.
Anyhow, after the reboot --> same result, no https-website.





At this point, I am a bit lost.
Can you give me a hint?



Best regards,
Alex


Re: Domain certificate not working

Posted by Maxim Solodovnik <so...@gmail.com>.
I would recommend this option as well if you have existing certificate

In case you need to create one I would follow instruction steps-by-step
(no need to restart KMS or reboot, just restart OM :)))
Since OM web interface is not accessible
you should have lots of interesting stuff in the logs?
can you check catatlina.out ?

Re: Domain certificate not working

Posted by ratatouille <ra...@bitclusive.de>.
Hello!

I made https available just by editing server.xml like this:

<Connector port="5443"
    SSLEnabled="true">
        <SSLHostConfig>
            <Certificate certificateFile="/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.de/cert.pem"
                         certificateKeyFile="/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.de/privkey.pem"
                         certificateChainFile="/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.de/fullchain.pem" />
        </SSLHostConfig>
    </Connector>

and it worked, nothing else I did.

AW: Domain certificate not working

Posted by "Ninnig, Alexander" <Al...@rechnungshof.rlp.de>.
Hi,

THAT'S exactly the kind of information, I was looking for. I figured, it could be something like this.

Just one last question: I do this INSTEAD of all this other keystore-stuff? Or AFTER?

Best Regards,
Alex

Hello!

I made https available just by editing server.xml like this:

<Connector port="5443"
    SSLEnabled="true">
        <SSLHostConfig>
            <Certificate certificateFile="/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.de/cert.pem"
                         certificateKeyFile="/etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.de/privkey.pem"

        </SSLHostConfig>
    </Connector>

and it worked, nothing else I did.

AW: Domain certificate not working

Posted by "Ninnig, Alexander" <Al...@rechnungshof.rlp.de>.
Works now. For everyone, who wants to know how (feel free to use in tutorials, if useable):

1. Create certificate
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Call https://mydomainca/certsrv/
Request a certificate
Advanced certificate request
Create and submit a request to this CA
Name: URL (e.g. if the URL is https://myserver.intern:5443, name should be myserver.intern)
Template: has to be a template, which allows private keys to be exported
Send in request and install certificate

2. Export certificate
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Open certificate-store of the browser (e.g. Internet Explorer: Internet Options, Content, Certificates, Personal)
Export certificate WITH private key as PFX-file (with option: if possible, contain all certificates...), here myserver.pfx
Export certificate WITHOUT private key as CRT-file (base-64-encoded x.509), here myserver.crt

3. Change format
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Get OpenSSL, copy PFX- and CER-file into directory of the openssl-exe-file (yeah, working with windows in this step)
openssl pkcs12 -in myserver.pfx -out myserverfull.pem -nodes
openssl pkey -in myserverfull.pem -out key.pem
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile myserverfull.pem |  openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -out chain.pem
openssl x509 -in myserver.cer -out myserver.pem -outform PEM
--> creates key.pem, chain.pem, myserver.pem, myserverfull.pem, copy them onto a netshare, which is accessable from your the openmeetings-server

4. Configure HTTPS
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I created a folder for my PEM-files. I mounted a netshare and copied the PEM-files into this folder:
sudo mkdir /etc/mycertificates
sudo cp /media/netshare/*.pem /etc/mycertificates

cd /opt/open504/conf
sudo vi server.xml

--> delete the following lines (using "dd")

    <Connector port="5443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
               maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true">
        <SSLHostConfig>
            <Certificate certificateKeystoreFile="conf/localhost.jks"
                         certificateKeystorePassword="openmeetings"
                         certificateKeystoreType="JKS"
                         certificateVerification="false"
                         sslProtocol="TLS"
                         type="RSA" />
        </SSLHostConfig>
    </Connector>

--> add the following lines (using "i")

    <Connector port="5443"
    SSLEnabled="true">
        <SSLHostConfig>
            <Certificate certificateFile="/etc/mycertificates/myserver.pem"
                         certificateKeyFile="/etc/mycertificates/key.pem"
                         certificateChainFile="/etc/mycertificates/chain.pem"
                         sslProtocol="TLS"/>
        </SSLHostConfig>
    </Connector>

--> save and exit (using "ESC", then ":w!", then ":q!")

sudo reboot
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
sudo /etc/init.d/kurento-media-server start
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat3 start



Best Regards,
Alex

PS: this line was essential:	sslProtocol="TLS"

Hi,

sorry, I could have figured it out myself.
I do this instead oft he keystore-stuff.
Since your example-code replaces the keystore-paths.
Gonna give it a try.
