Hi guys,

I've downloaded a demo VHD about a year ago, and now it seems the certificate is expired. I'm googling and found this -> https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/dynamics365/it/2018/04/24/rotate-the-expired-or-nearly-expired-certificates-on-your-downloadable-vhd/

which in summary told me to get the info of the certicates, which I did and this are the result :

May I know what should I put in this next step :

3. Obtain a new certificate for the expired certificate.

Set-Location -Path “cert://LocalMachine//My” $OldCert = (Get-ChildItem -Path <Thumbprint>) New-SelfSignedCertificate -CloneCert $OldCert

The above is in that blog, however I confuse what should I type then ? do I need to create the folder specified (/My ?) What exactly I need to do ?

Please help.

Thanks

Hi Voltes,

You are to replace the certificate to replace in the script.

$Thumbprint = (get-childitem -Path 01F93A5974A14DC3B40F1CF0BE78127974187BE5 )
New-SelfSignedCertificate -CloneCert $Thumbprint -NotAfter (Get-Date).AddMonths(120)

Hi Komi,

So, in this case, I should change for all 11 Thumbprint ?

I tried to follow exactly from the given reference -> https://ax.docentric.com/expired-certificates-renewal-in-d365fo/

And it is given me 5 licenses. and after execute all the renewal, like this:

Then start to replace the old with new inside 3 files, web.config, wif.config and wif.service.config.

But apparently after restart my DevBox, the error still persist.

Any idea what happened ? Thanks.

Hi,

I am struggling with the same problem. I seem to have done everything correctly, but unfortunately when run the D365 app, the browser keeps saying that the SSL certificate has expired, even though, it is already using a new certificate. I have already tried rebooting the machine and all processes - no result.
Could someone please help?

Hello Shooowtek,

Have you tried opening the URL in private window?

Tell the current version on your VHD.

Hi,

I found some other blog which is more clear and direct telling us what to do -> https://ax.docentric.com/expired-certificates-renewal-in-d365fo/

But after trying again in my other laptop which now has the same issue, it looks the same problem still persist.

After renewing all the thumbprint, I have replaced the old thumbprint with the new one in WEB.CONFIG, WIF.CONFIG, WIF.SERVICES.CONFIG. Then restart my VM.

The same error appeared although I open it in Edge Private Window.

One thing make me curious though, if I run CERTMGR.MSC, I found this DeploymentOneBox certificate still displaying old ExpiredDate. Does it mean it does not take any effect ?

My thumbprint after renew is clearly displaying two each with the second is the new one with expiration date on 2033->

My VHD when I download if not mistaken is 10.0.26, then upgraded several time already until now 10.0.32 Update56.

Anyone can help to guide me what is wrong ?

Thanks.
