Solution/Procedure

New certificate

UCServer self-signed certificate

The UCServer service is terminated and restarted.

  • Delete the file C:\Program Files\estos\UCServer\config\ucserverselfsigned.pfx.  (Create a backup beforehand.)
  • Start the UCServer setup (C:\Program Files\estos\UCServer\SrvInst.exe) and run it. A new SelfSigned certificate is created.
  • Select the new certificate that was created under C:\Program Files\estos\UCServer\config\ucserverselfsigned.pfx in the UCServer administration under Network interfaces at "UC Web Service HTTPS".
