cannot get CCR router and AP running CAPsMAN and CAPS - ssl error

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello all,

i am quite new to the game and i just tried to get the basics running. So i tried to enable in “WiFI” the Manager and to generate the CA automatically which i got:

interface/wifi/capsman/print
enabled: yes
interfaces: BRIDGE-LAN
ca-certificate: auto
certificate: auto
require-peer-certificate: yes
package-path:
upgrade-policy: none
generated-ca-certificate: WiFi-CAPsMAN-CA-789A1882D429
generated-certificate: WiFi-CAPsMAN-789A1882D429

but when i try to enable the CAPS mode on the hAP AX2 i see in the CCR logs:
disconnected XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX%*14, ssl: empty certificate chain received

on the AP logs i see:
failed to connect to MikroTik@XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX%*9, ssl: fatal alert received

I am not sure what exactly caused it but i have no clue atm what i should do to mitigate that. i resetted the AP in CAPS mode default settings and just added the correct bridge dhcp client to it.

Many thanks in advance for any help!

What happens when you set require-peer-certificate to no?

I have had this problem before when connected to a different CapsMan with Require Peer Certificate turned on.
Delete the certificates created from the previous CapsMan (System / Certificates)
Re Enable the Require Peer Certificates
Then go to the Caps and trust the new certificate (System / Certificates)
Hope this works for you
