Hi All,

I’ve recently purchased some certificates to sign a module we’re developing. I’ve been able run through the process outlined on the SDK wiki without any issues, however, when I try to install the module the gateway considers it to be unsigned despite recognising the issuer.

Could someone please provide some insight as to why this is happening? Is a certain type of certificate required? Or does it have to be configured in a particular way?

Thanks

It needs to be a “Code Signing Certificate”, I believe.
