Darshan Hiranandani : Help with Configuring SSL for Gitlab Manually

Hello Gitlab Community,
Hi Everyone, I’m Darshan Hiranandani, I need help configuring SSL for Gitlab on my Linux machine, but I don’t want to use Let’s Encrypt. I’m following instructions to copy my key and certificate into the /etc/gitlab/ssl directory. However, I already have a .cer file from my PKI team for another application on the same server. Can anyone guide me on how to create the .key file for Gitlab or if there’s another way to handle this? Any assistance would be appreciated!

Thanks!
Regards
Darshan Hiranandani

Certificates must be in PEM format. You cannot use a certificate in .cer format. Get your PKI team to give you the correctly formatted certificate.
