After enabling the HTTPS configuration for the WCF communication channel, you must import the encryption keys created with your first Content Composer server installation on each Content Composer Client workstation. Complete the following steps:
  1. From the secure backup store you created during installation, copy the following files to the %Composerdir% directory:
    • encryption_keys.config
    • CoCoEncryptionRSAKey.xml
    Note: See "Exporting and Backing up Encryption Keys" in the Content Composer Installation Guide for information about the secure backup directory.
  2. Open a command prompt window as an administrator and navigate to the %Composerdir% directory.
  3. To import the encryption key, execute the following command:
    Composer.EncryptionTool importkey
  4. For security reasons, remove the following file from the %Composerdir% directory after importing:
    • CoCoEncryptionRSAKey.xml
  5. From the %Composerdir% directory, open Composer.Client.exe.config with a text editor that supports UTF-8.
  6. Insert the following line within the <appSettings> element:
    <add key="ProtectedConfiguration" value="encryption_keys.config" />
  7. Save and close the file.
