Hi all,

I am using websphere mq 7.1.0.201110191413 on win2008r2 64 bit.

I have a root CA cert that is expiring and i have difficulities in adding a new root CA cert. Note: this new root CA is the same copy as the expiring root CA cert with an extended expiring date.

In command prompt, i had executed the following command
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere MQ\gskit8\bin>gsk8capicmd.exe -cert -add -db "D:\file\as01.kdb" -label asa -file "D:\file\newca.cer" -pw password

The following error is displayed in message box
"The program cant start because gsk8km.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I had also tried to add using IBM Key Management GUI > Signer Certificates > Add button > select .cer file > input label name (abc), it prompts "The public key of 'abc' is the same as the key of 'currentcalabel' in the target keystore. And when i try to delete the 'currentcalabel' it prompts "Error loading entry 'currentcalabel'.

Clicking on the detail button on the prompt, it shows this error:
Error Code:
23

Had read thru the fixes for websphere mq 7.1 and there is any fixes for this.



If i were to delete the existing root CA and add in the new root CA, everything works.
I believe MQ should allow me to add on the new root CA without requiring me to delete the existing root CA.
Just wonder if anyone had encountered the same issue for this?b

I would be surprised if it allowed two certs for the same root.

Doesn't make much sense to me to allow what you want. It's got to match a cert - not a range of them.

Won't work. Even if the root CA has exactly the same DN, it's serial # is different and it's signed hash is likely to be different, as such it would not be recognized as being part of the chain.

Think if the top changes, everything it signed needs to change as well.
You either have to resign everything and re-import the public cert, or redo all the certs. In view of the effort you might just as well do the latter.
