SSL Certificate add failed, Error: 1312 A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated

[anil1890]

Getting error "SSL Certificate add failed, Error: 1312 A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated"

windows_certificate "C:/tmp/cert/certpfx.pfx" do
  pfx_password "12345"
  user_store false
end
windows_certificate_binding 'Binding' do
  action :create
  name 'CN=www.demo.com'
  name_kind :subject
  store_name "MY"
  port 443
  address '0.0.0.0'
end

After googling find that this is not working due to "Allow Export " is not setting true while import certificate I can able to install same certificate manually with allow export true

Please help how to resolve this.

also same thing working fine using powershell script

powershell_script 'Cert_install' do
  code <<-EOH
    $securePWD = ConvertTo-SecureString "#{node.run_state['path_values']['certpwd']}" -AsPlainText -Force

Sorry to necro an old issue, but I put this together for someone that had the dreaded 1312 issue. TLDR, generate your CSR using OpenSSL, use that to get your cert, then use OpenSSL to merge in your private key and convert to PFX, then install the PFX file.
