PowerShell CREATE A SELF-SIGNED CERTIFICATE
-
11 September 2011 14:43
Sorry but stupid question time. I am definitely doing something wrong and don't have a clue what it is.
I created a simple PowerShell script and have tested it with the PowerShell scripting options set to Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted and it works just fine. Now I would like to self sign it so I can change the Policy to All Signed. The problem I am having is running the commands from the Get-Help about_signing CREATE A SELF-SIGNED CERTIFICATE section.
Note: You can copy or type the commands exactly as they appear.
No substitutions are necessary, although you can change the
certificate name.
makecert -n "CN=PowerShell Local Certificate Root" -a sha1 `
-eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -r -sv root.pvk root.cer `
-ss Root -sr localMachineIf I copy and paste it into the command window the first line is successful. The second line fails with the message '-eku' is not recognized as an internal or external command, Which makes sense.
If I put it all on one line I get the error message too many parameters.
How do you run these commands?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Actually, that doesn't make sense. That last character on the first line should be a backtick, which indicates a line continuation.That you're getting that error on the second line indicates it's not recognizing the second line as a continuation of the first line.
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " " -

Very strange
Here is what I get from a copy and paste
it is seeing each line as a complete command
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin>makecert -n "CN=PowerShell Local Certificate Root"
-a sha1 `
Succeeded
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin>-eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -r -sv root.pvk root.cer `
'-eku' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Are you pasting into a DOS Window?
Yes. That is why.

Most likely you don't have the Windows SDK installed. Windows SDK holds the required file MakeCert.exe.
You can download it here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=84091

I am now in the same mess. Windows 7 Professional 64bit. I wanted to run a simple Powershell and needed certificate. I downloaded Windows SDK and for some reason I needed Windows Net 4.0 with all its frameworks. I found 2 versions of makecert.exe. Not surprising. I ended back in Powershell and tried
Set-Location C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin\x64
makecert -n "CN=PowerShell Local Certificate Root" -a sha1 `
-eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.3 -r -sv root.pvk root.cer `
-ss Root -sr localMachineResults:The term 'makecert' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, o
r if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
