Digital Signature fails when signing with .pfx certifcate

Hello,

I use .pfx certificate to sign my Application. But get error during build: The digital signing of the APPDIR\xxx.exe file failed. Error message: 'SignTool Error: No certificates were found that met all the given criteria.'

It gives the same error for signing C:\Program Files (x86)\Caphyon\Advanced Installer 17.2\custact\x86\aipackagechainer.exe file.

The .pem certificate was given by GoDaddy and then converted to .pfx file using a private key and password.

How can I solve this issue?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Tanya

Hello Tanya,

Unfortunately, I can not really say why this is happening.

Did you import your digital certificate to the personal store and then selected it using the "Use from certificate store" option from the "Digital Signature" page of your project?

Does the signing work if you use the "File from disk" option? If not, can you use that certificate to sign your package outside Advanced Installer?

Best regards,
