I've meant .cer in my previous post (the .crt was a typo, though they are interchangeable).

Again, it's a public key, that's why you cannot load it. You need a private key. Private keys typically have .pfx, .p12, .key or .pem extensions (though some files with these extension may contain a public key only).

Hi

Please find the attached error shot. we are not able to load certificate .cer format. can you please advise.

The file you have forwarded me contains a public key only (the section BEGIN CERTIFICATE ... END CERTIFICATE).

It's also indicated by the .cer extension, which is used for public keys. That's why WinSCP does not show the .cer files when browsing for the client certificate.

pleae check email.

Again, there's nothing attached.

If you have problems attaching the files, please email them to me.

You will find my address in my forum profile (after you login in).

while represent certificate do we require private key also.. we are unable to load .crt format certificate in winscp and getting same above error.

private and public key attached for your review.

There's nothing attached. Please try again.

Hi,

Kindly help which file do we need to mention in winscp.

Appreciate your kind help on this.

WinSCP does not use Windows certificate store for client certificates.

You have to export your private key to one of the supported formats:
https://winscp.net/eng/docs/tls#client_certificate
and configure WinSCP session to use the file.

Hi,

we have installed all the certificate in Windows Server certificate under personal folder and intermediate folder.

Do I need to define certificate in WinSCP also to represent certificate? Or WinSCP itself ask for connectivity?

Hi,

Please allow me sometime. I will ask VISA about private and public key. Will update you.

So you believe there's a private key in the file you have attached to your post?

Dear Sir,

The have provided signed client certificate and Root CA cert/Intermediate VICA3 SHA-1 and Intermediate VICA3 SHA-2 which we installed in our FTPS server on windows server 2012.

all together they have provided 4 certificate

WinSCP does not support P7B format.
And anyway, your file contains a public key only.
You have to have a private key to authenticate. And I believe that P7B format cannot contain private key at all. It makes it pointless for authentication.
Are you sure that this is a client certificate?

Hi

I have uploaded file type. Request you please check

Hi,

They have provide signed client certificate and ask to change file extension from TXT TO P7B. The File contain contains the signed certificate as well as the intermediate root certificate which we had installed in windows server 2012 R2.

Incoming connection to our server fine mean they are able to connect to our server but we are unable to connect on visa server.

How does the file look like? Can you post it here? Of course, replace the secret parts.

Hi,
