I am trying to create a Self Signed Certificate on windows 2012 r2 for an application hosted on websphere.

My application is something like https://server1.xxx.co.yy:9434/app/screen/login

and it gives not secure error on address bar.

Please let me know how to resolve this .

  • That's expected, as for this URL you need a certificate who covers server1.xxx.co.yy in its common name or DNS names, and also let all clients/browsers trust the certificate manually. Tons of work but you should get some assistance from the network administrators if you work for a firm. – Lex Li Aug 18 '20 at 13:38

Chrome return this error, if the certificate is not a trusted CA certificate. If you want to just ignore this error click on the advance and then click to proceed to unsafe.

or another way is create a self-signed certificate with the Common name as your site URL which is server1.xxx.co.yy.

for that run PowerShell as administrator and then execute below command:

New-SelfSignedCertificate -DnsName www.test.com -CertStoreLocation cert:Localmachine\My

after creating certificate move certificate to the trusted root folder follow below steps:

  • Press the Windows button on your keyboard

  • Type 'cert'

  • Click on 'Manage Computer Certificates'

  • Under Personal, click on the Certificates folder

  • Find the certificate you created

  • Right click on it and choose 'Copy'

  • Then under Trusted Root Certification Authorities right click on the Certificates folder and choose 'Paste'

You could add the self-signed certificate to chrome ca store:
