install ssl cert on manage engine ad audit plus

Purchased wildcard cert

Created internal DNS name adap.domain.com pointing to server 192.168.0.50

Convert the cert + private key + bundle to a single .pfx file with password

Most of the apps the cert was able to be installed from

admin -> general settings -> import SSL

Service Desk Plus - I had to click the 9 dots in the top left to find the "import ssl option"


For AD audit plus I needed to edit a file:

C:\Program Files\ManageEngine\ADAudit Plus\conf

Drop your .pfx file into this folder

Edit server.xml

Search for your SSL port in my case 8083

You will see a line

keystoreFile="./conf/server.keystore" keystorePass="password"

You will need to edit this 

keystoreFile="./conf/MYPFXFILE.pfx" keystorePass="MYPFXPASSWORD"

I needed to change it on two lines at the bottom of the file

Then in services on the windows server restart 

ManageEngine ADAudit Plus service
