Securing MarkLogic Server

Importing a Signed Certificate into MarkLogic Server

When you receive the PEM file(s) containing signed certificate(s) from the certification authority, import the PEM file(s) into MarkLogic Server. If you are using chained certificates, you will need to import the end and intermediate certificate PEM files into MarkLogic Server. If your MarkLogic Server is to act as a client , you must also import the root certificate.

Note

Because the signed certificate is from a trusted certification authority, browsers are already configured to trust the certificate.

  1. Click Security in the left tree menu.

  2. Click Certificate Templates in the left tree menu.

  3. Click the certificate template name on the left tree menu. The Configure certificate template page appears.

  4. Click the Import tab. The Import Certificates page appears.

  5. Click Choose File to locate the PEM file(s) containing the signed certificate(s) and select OK. Zip files can be uploaded directly without the need to unzip them. Alternatively, you can paste an individual certificate(s) into the text area.

Note

Users can also import certificates signed by something besides a downloaded CSR from MarkLogic Server. To do this, the user also needs to import the private key of the certificate. The user can only input one certificate at a time if doing this.
