Can't change time zone

[JohnAtl]

Due to this error:

Code:

Selected certificate does not have a private key

Any ideas?

A little light on specifics, but...

You have any anything unique in NTP config?

Seem pretty straight forward to me.

 

[JohnAtl]

I agree, should be a no-brainer.
Even just clicking Save without changing anything gives the error.

That seems too be more of a problem with the freenas_default self signed certificate than just TZ

I am affected by the same problem like OP. My Private Key field is empty. Anyone any idea why? Is there a way to restore the cert? Is there a way to generate a new certificate?
@JohnAtl, how did you fix this?

 

[Samuel Tai]

Try midclt call system.general.update '{ "timezone": "<TZ string>"}' from the Shell.

 

[heis2201]

Didn't work.

I used tzsetup to define a new timezone, however the UI doesn't update.

 

[heis2201]

I guess I should solve the issue with the private key

Generating and assigning a new cert and private key should do the trick.
Did you possibly import a saved configuration? And when saving, did that without enabling the "Export Secret Seed"? Just guessing ...

Is there a how-to or guide somewhere that explains the process? I thought about it, but I failed (I have no clue about certs).

No. this was an older install of freenas (9.x ?), which I had never used. Now, I revived the hardware and upgraded to truenas 12.0 without importing an older config.

System > CA - generate a Certification Authority
System > Certificates - generate a Cert signed by that CA

Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Are you aware of any descriptive guide on all the details/data that go into the CA?

Still works.
Thanks!!
