How to Issue TLS 1.2 Certificate in Win Server 2019 Certificate Authority
Hi,
OK, One of the causes which might cause an issue is a Private Key length which is an important factor in the certificate, what is the key length for the certificate, if fewer than1024 would you please generate another certificate with a longer Key.
A certificate containing a public key that is used to encrypt electronic messages, files, documents, or data transmissions, or to establish or exchange a session key for these same purposes.”
TLS is a protocol that uses the certificate and its content to establish a secure connection, and what I see here is not a certificate issue, its a protocol issue.
Please regenerate the certificate with a longer key 2048 at least and let me know the update.
Thanks
Hi farismalaeb,
Something has come up urgently at work today. About the key length, I created it with 4096 length. That is why I don't understand.
FYI, I am based in Sydney, Australia. I reckon you are based somewhere in the US with may be 12 hours different.

I assume that the key length created from your Win2019 SRV is similar to the key length created using the RapidSSL.
I would advise you to use Wireshark to see the steps before the TLS negotiation.
That will reveal a lot
and yes, I live in UAE, Abu Dhabi 🙂
