"Corrupted Certificate"
Cause
You may encounter errors when you attempt to import, add or use a certificate, which has been transmitted (e.g. via FTP) or copied using a text editor.
Resolution
The following types of certificate must be FTPed in ASCII:
- PEM (privacy-enhanced mail)
- Base64 encoded X.509
The following types of certificate must be FTPed in binary:
- DER encoded binary X.509
- PKCS #7 (CA certificates)

Also, you should process in text only editors like NOTEPAD which do not strip trailing blanks or perform other character changes like word processors such as Word or WordPad etc.
