Before you begin
Install
Plant Applications Web Client.
About this task
When you install Plant Applications using Docker, a self-signed certificate for the Web Client applications is created so that you can access Web Client using HTTPS. For better security, we recommend that you replace this self-signed certificate with one issued by a trusted CA authority. Note: Only .pem (with certificate and private key included) files are supported.
Procedure
- Access the wcrepair.sh file in the uc-ansible-installer folder.
- Provide execution permissions to the wcrepair.sh file by running the following command:
sudo chmod +x <path to the installer>/uc-ansible-installer/wcrepair.sh
- Run the wcrepair.sh file by running one of the following commands:
- If you want to run this utility directly on the Web Client node:
<path to the installer>/uc-ansible-installer/sudo ./wcrepair.sh -l -ssl reset
- If you want to run this utility remotely on the Web Client node:
<path to the installer>/uc-ansible-installer/sudo ./wcrepair.sh -r -ssl reset
- If you run this utility remotely, enter the details of the Web Client node.
A message appears, asking you to enter the path of the new SSL certificate.
- Enter the path of the new SSL certificate.
/home/administrator/myca_certs/new_cert.pem
The existing SSL certificate is replaced with the certificate that you have provided.
