Requesting a certificate fails with the error message "A valid certification authority (CA) configured to issue certificates based on this template cannot be located, or the CA does not support this operation, or the CA is not trusted."

Assume the following scenario:

  • You try to apply for a certificate from an Active Directory-integrated certification authority (Enterprise Certification Authority).
  • To do this, use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), either for the logged-in user (certmgr.msc) or for the computer (certlm.msc).
  • However, the desired certificate template is not displayed for selection, even though it has been correctly published on the certification authority.
  • The logged-in user (or computer) also has the necessary permissions to request certificates from the certificate template in question (enroll).
  • In the list of available certificate templates within the MMC, all certificate templates are displayed. At the desired certificate template is written:
A valid certification authority (CA) configured to issue certificates based on this template cannot be located, or the CA does not support this operation, or the CA is not trusted.
