f. Follow the wizard to export the certificate as a .pfx file (Note: remember the passphrase you specified to protect the cert)
g. Export the PFX to your GEO Jobe product’s main folder

Open the command prompt and navigate to the Admin Tools 2.0 main directory and insert:

Restart the Admin Tools server, and open the browser using the HTTPS location.
Finalizing Configuration for your HTTPS Certificate (for All Options Above)
It is important to properly specify what configuration type that is being used for your Admin Tools certificate and nullify or providing empty values to other certificate properties. Improper specification of the certification type may cause complications when running Admin Tools.
Under nodeconfig.json, specify which HTTPS certificate type you will use for your environment (under
certs) and property in certs to null or empty:
| Code Block |
|---|
Example below: Using .pfx for your HTTPS certificate
"certs": {
"certificate": "", <-- Empty value
"key": "", <-- Empty value
"pfx": "<pfx filepath>/cert.pfx", <-- pfx filepath example
"pfximport": "" <-- Empty value
}, |
If using
certificateandkey, ensure that both contain filepath values while pfx and pfximport are left blank. If usingpfximport, provide filename and leave the other property values blank.
