How to sign the cab file with a priviliged certificate?
|

| I have created a privilieged test certificate and it works fine to sign exe:s
and dll:s using it. However, when I sign the cab (using signcode, I have
signed the exe inside as well - I've also tried the cabsigner tool to sign
both the cab and the exe) it doesn't seem to work. When I launch the cab on
the phone the phone claims it comes from an untrusted source (which should
pop up if I have signed it, right?). I try to launch my signed exe and it
doesn't work. I restart the phone and _then_ it works to launch the exe. And
yes, I have restarted the phone after I've run rapiconfig to add my
certificate to the phone.
Is it something that I forget?

| Make sure you have added your test certificate to the SPC store as well.
That's the store that is used to check the signature on cab files.

| That was it. Thank you Scott. I wasn't aware of that I needed to add the
certificate to the SPC store as well.
