I'm trying to figure out how to get both the root AND interediate cert from this digicert chain pem file. It came in through certbot / Acme.

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----


-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Hello,
the mentioned certificate only contains the intermediate-certificate. As the data only contains one -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE---- ..... -----END CERTIFICATE---- section it is only one certificate and not a complete chain.
Normal browsers do have the root-ca already installed so there is normally no need to have the root-ca within your webserver, too.
But if you need it (for whatever reason) here it is:
Code:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE———
….
….
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Easiest way (at least for me) to get the cert was to store your data as im.crt, open it within windows, goto tab "certificate path", select the root-ca-certificate, click on "display certificate", click on tab "details", click on "save to file" and follow the path to store it in a file of your choice.
As I'm using a non-english-version of Win10 the captions in english-versions might be slightly different Very Happy

Best regards
Matthias

I was hoping there was an openssl command to get it. The keystore I'm putting it into does not have the root cert. I'm trying to keep humans out of the import process.

I think you can download those files automatically from https://knowledge.digicert.com/generalinformation/INFO4033.html

I finally spent the time to do a vbscript:

Code:

Dim filesys

Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments

srcfile = objArgs(0)


Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set readfile = filesys.OpenTextFile(srcfile, 1, false)

filenum = 0

Do While readfile.AtEndOfStream = False
statsline = readfile.Readline

   if InStr(1,statsline,"-----BEGIN") then
      filenum = filenum + 1
      outfname = "cert" + cstr(filenum) + ".pem"
      set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
      Set pemfile = fs.CreateTextFile(outfname)
      pemfile.Write statsline & vbcrlf
      
   elseif instr (1,statsline,"-----END") then
      pemfile.write statsline & vbcrlf
      pemfile.close
   else
      pemfile.write statsline & vbcrlf
   End If
   
loop

readfile.close

pemfile.close



create pem file:

openssl.exe pkcs12 -in my.pfx -nodes -out -| awk '/-----BEGIN/{a=1}/-----END/{print;a=0}a'
