### Start Monkey Island with user-provided certificate
|
|
|
|
By default, Infection Monkey comes with a [self-signed SSL certificate](https://aboutssl.org/what-is-self-sign-certificate/). In
|
|
enterprise or other security-sensitive environments, it is recommended that the
|
|
user provide Infection Monkey with a certificate that has been signed by a
|
|
private certificate authority.
|
|
|
|
1. If you haven't already, run the Monkey Island by clicking on the desktop
|
|
shortcut. This will populate MongoDB, as well as create and populate
|
|
`%AppData%\monkey_island`.
|
|
1. Stop the Monkey Island process.
|
|
1. (Optional but recommended) Move your `.crt` and `.key` files to `%AppData%\monkey_island`.
|
|
1. Create a [server configuration file and provide the path to the certificate](../../reference/server_configuration).
|
|
1. Run the Monkey Island by clicking on the desktop shortcut.
|
|
|
|
1. Access the Monkey Island web UI by pointing your browser at
|
|
`https://localhost:5000`.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Support
|
|
|
|
Only **English** system locale is supported. If your command prompt gives output in a different
|
|
language, the Infection Monkey is not guaranteed to work.
|
|
|
|
For supported Windows versions, take a look at the [OS support page](../../reference/operating_systems_support).
|
|
|
|
### Missing Windows update
|
|
|
|
The installer requires [Windows update #2999226](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows).
|
|
If you're having trouble running the installer, please make sure to install the
|
|
update via Windows Update or manually from the link above.
|
|
|
|
### Supported browsers
|
|
|
|
The Monkey Island supports Chrome (and Chrome-based) browsers. If your Windows
|
|
server only has Internet Explorer installed, please install Chrome or a similar
|
|
modern browser. [You can download Google Chrome
|
|
here](https://www.google.com/chrome/).
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading
|
|
|
|
To upgrade the Infection Monkey on Windows, download the new installer and run
|
|
it. The new Monkey version will be installed over the old version.
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to keep your existing configuration, you can export it to a file
|
|
using the *Export config* button and then import it to the new Monkey Island.
