We've got a webserver (Apache) at work that is using https for our webpage. The thing is that everytime I enter this page from chrome I get:
NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
I created the certificate and added it to the apache server config following the instructions of this webpage:
Now what I've tried to do is add the certificate in chrome by going to Certificate Manager and in the tab your certificates add the server.crt that I generated. This does not work as it asks for a password (I used the same passphrase as the procedure) and it says its corrupt. What I have managed to to do is added to the Authorities tab. I import the certificate and I get an entry showing a folder with my company's name and my own name. I edit the option and mark the checkbox "Trust this certificate for identifying websites".
I then restart chrome and the error persists. If I click in the x'ed lock (next to the site address) I see the cert details stuff like the company is not shown (which I filled out). So I figure this has to do with the problem.
Also, I added the certificate for an Authority. I also think I'm missing a step in which I say that the Authority (me) trusts the sites certificate.
Can anyone point me to what I might be doing wrong?
EDIT: It was pointed out to me that it is important to clarify that the Operating System is Debian.
