CERTIFICATE AUTHORITY INVALID error

I used self signed certificates generated by searchgaurd tls tool.

When I access the URL with HTTPS chrome shows error CERTIFICATE AUTHORITY INVALID.

I am not able to access kibana unless changed to http.

It says protocol error.

What is the problem?

  • Search Guard and Elasticsearch version 6.4.1-23.1

  • JVM version and operating system version UBUNTU JAVA 10

  • Search Guard configuration files

  • Elasticsearch log messages on debug level

  • Other installed Elasticsearch or Kibana plugins, if any

There is no problem, everything works as expected. You are using self-signed certificates, so the browser issues a warning because the root CA is not in the list of the browsers trusted root CAs.

We have an article about TLS certificates on our blog:

So you either need to accept the browser warning, or import the root CA generated by the TLS tool into your browser.
