You have a private key file in an openssl format and have received your SSL certificate. You'd like now to create a PKCS12 (or .pfx) to import your certificate in an other software? Openssl generate der from public keyboard.
Here is the procedure!
- Find the private key file (xxx.key) (previously generated along with the CSR).
- Download the .p7b file on your certificate status page ('See the certificate' button then 'See the format in PKCS7 format' and click the link next to the diskette).
- a) Convert this file into a text one (PEM):
On Windows, the OpenSSL command must contain the complete path, for example:
c:openssl-win32binopenssl.exe ..) - b) Now create the pkcs12 file that will contain your private key and the certification chain:

You can now use the file file final_result.p12 in any software that accepts pkcs12! For IIS, rename the file in .pfx, it will be easier.
Alternatively, if you want to generate a PKCS12 from a certificate file (cer/pem), a certificate chain (generally pem or txt), and your private key, you need to use the following command:
