Hi,
We are writing a tool to interact with Azure service and in the process have hit the error "Security.SecurityNegotiationException: Could not establish secure channel for SSL/TLS with authority 'management.core.windows.net'. ---> System.Net.WebException:
The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel. "
We have done the following:
1. We have uploaded a cert to management certificates section of Azure hosted service
2. We are adding a .pfx on the client to Cert store using X509Certificate2 and X509Store.
3. Our code in brief looks like this:
X509Store localmachinestore = new X509Store(StoreName.My, StoreLocation.LocalMachine);
localmachinestore.Open(OpenFlags.ReadWrite);
X509Certificate2 certificate = new X509Certificate2(file);
localmachinestore.Add(certificate);
4. Our calls to azure service are failing with the above mentioned exception.
5. If I install the pfx manually (by using certmgr mmc and use import) then things work just fine.
I have used the tool "WinHttpCertCfg.exe" to validate that current user has access to private keys. The client is running under local system. What
am i missing when I am adding the pfx to store programmatically? any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
hitesh
