Moving to a new PC

Hi I am migrating to a new PC ans was wondering if there are any API problems I need to watch out for. Is it a case of simply copying all files across that reside on my old PC. Tried this but it seems to not allow me to login, requiring CERT_AUTH. Appreciate any advice

Done this many times, you just need to create the same folders and copy the files from the "API_NG_OpenSSL" folder.
Check all your folder names are the same.

Thanks for the response, I do not have a API_NH_OpenSSL folder I have a folder with the four client-2048 files and I have copied those over but get the above mentioned problem

I don't think the folder name is important.

I have a folder named c:\API_NG_OpenSSL with 5 files:-
client-2048.crt
client-2048.csr
client-2048.key
client-2048.p12
client-2048.pem


and a line in my code as follows:-

X509Certificate2 x509certificate = new X509Certificate2("c:\\API_NG_OpenSSL\\client-2048.p12", "password");

I've copied these about different servers and never had any problems.

Difficult to say without seeing the code, what was the directory in your old computer compared to new and have you updated it?

I have copied over the client-2048.crt pem csr and key files to the corresponding folder on new PC

Hi LetsGo when you say 'in your code' which code are you referring to ?., thanks

Hi LetsGo when you say 'in your code' which code are you referring to ?., thanks

It's the c# code I use in my program to login and access the client-2048.p12 file.


const string postData = "username=??????&password=??????";
X509Certificate2 x509certificate = new X509Certificate2("c:\\API_NG_OpenSSL\\client-2048.p12", "??????");
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://identitysso-cert.betfair.com/api/certlogin");
request.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate;
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Headers.Add("X-Application", AppKey_Api_ng);
request.ClientCertificates.Add(x509certificate);
request.Accept = "*/*";
request.Proxy = null;

I am working in Python and on my new machine a login attempt gives me

CERT_AUTH_REQUIRED

Even though I have copied over all client-2048 files
