Description

I just pasted an SSL cert into the cert manager to use as the cert for the web interface. I managed to paste the cert missing the last line: -----END CERTIFICATE-----

Presumably no validation takes place because /var/etc/cert.pem was still created as a concatenation of the pasted cert and key, but obviously the last line of my cert mentioned above was missing. The webconfigurator restarted and then I was unable to access it anymore. I fixed it by tracking down the above file and restarting the webconfigurator from the console.

Is it possible to do validation on the pasted certs? Just a check that the first and last lines are sane would be a start?
