Fair play streaming certificate error in apple developer account

Question

I am trying to create a FPS (Fair play streaming)certificate but I am getting this error when I upload CSR file which I create by keychain access of mac system

These are some screenshots of creating CSR file using keychain access.

I am not able to understand what is the solution of this error ?

Answer 1

Use the instructions you have received in <FPS_Credential_Creation_Guide.pdf> as part of the Deployment package to generate certificate signed request (CSR). Then upload this file as CSR file.

OpenSSL

Apple provides the OpenSSL application on macOS. Use openssl from the command line to generate the public/private key pair, certificate signed request (CSR).

1. Generate key pair

   openssl genrsa -aes256 -out privatekey.pem 1024
   

2. Generate CSR

   openssl req -new -sha1 -key privatekey.pem -out certreq.csr \
       -subj "/CN=SubjectName/OU=OrganizationalUnit/O=Organization/C=US"
   

Answer 2

In you screenshots you are choosing 2048 RSA, but the error message states 1024 RSA is expected. Did you try generating a key using 1024?

Answer 3

As the error message indicates, the Certificate Signing Request requires the RSA-2048 algorithm. As an alternative, you can use openSSL to generate the CSR via the following steps:

1. Execute the following openSSL command to create a private key:

openssl genrsa -out privateKey.key 2048

2. Execute the following openSSL command to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) from the private key:

openssl req -new -key privateKey.key -out certificateSigningRequest.csr
