Exchange 2019 ssl certificate invalid

I have installed Exchange 2019 for testing purposes. I have purchased a domain name and a certificate. After I installed it, the status shows: invalid. Thank you.

    belilan,

     From your picture, it looks like your CSR might not have been correct, or your certificate wasn't correctly installed, as I do not see your Exchange Virtual Directory URL under the name (Figure A).

     

    I understand the steps you have taken; you purchase a domain; let say for this example, it is contoso.com, and your exchange server virtual directory URLs are exchange.contoso.com. You created a Certificate Sign Request (CSR) for exchange.contoso.com and submitted that request to a certificate authority. Once you received your certificate, your complete a pending certificate request. Which then, you are assign services to that certificate.

     

    Figure A:

    The following posting show how to installed and configured certificates. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/architecture/client-access/certificate-procedures?view=exchserver-2019

      Hi.

      I had to add the CA_bundle.crt in the trusted....

      It works fine now.
