Hello,
while testing WAPT in a lab environment, I tried deploying Firefox on a Windows 10 workstation.
The workstation appears correctly in the inventory, no problem there, but after retrieving the Firefox package from the internet and adding it to the machine, I get the following error message:
Error building or uploading package ==> error on server: Ewaptforbidden (host matching package does not trust signer certificate...).
Can you help me?
Many thanks,
El Chapulin.

Hi Anthony,

there must be a certificate issue. The package needs to be signed with a different certificate than the one installed on the machine.

Does your certificate appear correctly in the "Certificate" tab on the machine?
Is it the same as the one in your console?

Hello,
thank you for the feedback.
Yes, the certificate does appear in the client's certificates tab and it's the same one as on my machine...

Same expiry date on the certificate?

yes 17/12/2033

Okay, it's working perfectly on a test VM today...
No explanation needed, I'll continue testing!
Thanks!

Okay, so there must be a certificate issue because it only works on the VM (which was created during the first testing phase).
What's the procedure for deploying the correct certificate to the client machines, given that I've recreated a certificate on the server?
Thank you very much for your help.

The procedure is as follows.

The certificate you use in the console must be present in the C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\ssl folder of the machines you control.

Also delete all wapt packages signed with a different key

Also delete from your computer any certificates you are not using located in C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\ssl

The error is here, then. There's no need to recreate the certificate in your case
