So I'm trying to install an SSL certificate that I received from GoDaddy. I'm trying to follow the steps to renew is on my Exchange 2016 server. I've already installed the Intermediate certificate and now when I go to log into EAC. Servers - certificates. I see my mail.domain.com which expires on 9/11/2018. When I select 'Renew'. I get this box to 'Save the certificate request to the following file'. What information do I put <g class="gr_ gr_668 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation multiReplace" data-gr-id="668" id="668">here.</g> I'm trying to use the UNC path to where my .crt file is located. Do I need to generate a <g class="gr_ gr_1069 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation multiReplace" data-gr-id="1069" id="1069">CSR.</g>  I followed this link but still can't seem to get it to work:

which CSR did you used to renew certificate from godaddy? Did you generate that csr manually or used exchange ecp/eac? Usually following below steps works

  • click on renew link in EAC

  • save .req or . Csr file

  • use this request file to issue certificate from issuer

  • import certificate using check ‘complete’ link

Hi

I normally use \localhost\c$\Path (path being another folder)

Or you could renew the cert on godaddy and import it into IIS and then assign services in exchange?
