shackbill 21 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I setup SSL in early December and arbitrarily set port 8920 as the https port. I have a DDNS name mapped to my external address and everything seemed to work for a while. I have my mode set to Preferred but not required since i wanted to test this for a while. A couple weeks ago i noticed i could no longer connect SSL. The cert is still good i am just not getting a connection. scratching my head i checked everything i could think of firewall, rules, etc. Today i did a netstat on the emby server and i dont see anything listening on that port. Also, in the log an error shows ' Error Loading Cert from...' but yet it is there located on the c Drive. WOuld a bad or unloadable pfx file prevent the service from at least running? I dont see any disk permission issues. Also, dashboard show 'Running on port 8097' for http but nothing for https. Any idea why this service is not running would be helpful thanks.

shackbill 21 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) well thats a pretty cryptic response. Are you referring to the network password error? Not sure it can be wrong i am logged into the EMBY Server as admin. and the pfx is not on a network share? can you please elaborate. thanks. oh and i checked the .bat file i used to create the cert and the cert password is correct as well Edited January 22 by shackbill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37235 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 The error the server is getting from the dotnet runtime is that the certificate password is incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shackbill 21 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 well ive checked it and retyped it twice now. dont know how it couldve just changed by itself. i guess i will create a new cert and try again. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Q-Droid 670 Posted January 22 Solution Share Posted January 22 I don't know which .bat you're using but you should avoid using certain symbol characters in the passphrase because they can be evaluated by the interpreter running the script. Plain characters (upper/lower/numbers) should be more than enough for the cert files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shackbill 21 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 yup i just figured that out. doesnt like special characters. Ran another with just a weak password and its fine now thanks. Now i gotta figure out how to make my fqdn work right?? i have DDNS with asus for my domain.com but i am trying to forward to emby.domain.com so i get bad cert now?
