I have inherited an Azure Web App and I would like to secure it with SSL.

Following the official Microsoft Guide (here) I completed steps 1 - 5 of "1. Get an SSL certificate"

Therefore I have :

But now I run into troubles.

And now with Step 9 the problems begin.
I never get prompted if I want to export the private key and the .pfx option is greyed out.

As it seems, it is greyed out because I do not have the private key.

Where do I get the private-key-file from my azure-app?
Or do I understand something awfully wrong here?

You need to finish following the guide. – Michael Hampton Nov 25 '15 at 11:19
I updated my question to provide more information – JDurstberger Nov 25 '15 at 11:36
You skipped step 6, you need to do that. – Michael Hampton Nov 25 '15 at 11:38
I don't have a `cer` file. As stated above the zip file of godaddy only contains `crt` and `p7b` – JDurstberger Nov 25 '15 at 11:42
The crt file _is_ the certificate! – Michael Hampton Nov 25 '15 at 11:42
But running `certreq -accept -user mycert.crt` with my `crt` throws me an error `0x80092004 - CRYPT_E_NOT_FOUND`. – JDurstberger Nov 25 '15 at 11:48
You need to do this on the same machine that you generated the CSR. – Michael Hampton Nov 25 '15 at 11:52
