502 error when generating X509Certificate2 from p12 certificate in Azure Websites for Google API
I found the solution on this MSDN forum post. Basically I needed to set X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable | X509KeyStorageFlags.MachineKeySet as I read in the first SO post I mentioned and then I needed Flags = CspProviderFlags.UseMachineKeyStore in my CspParamaters.
I have posted my full solution on GitHub
Firstly, you should add the p12 file to resources:
Right click on project - properties - resources - add resource and after that use this line of code for the certificate
var certificate = new X509Certificate2((byte[])Properties.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(ResourceName), "!password!", X509KeyStorageFlags.MachineKeySet | X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable | X509KeyStorageFlags.PersistKeySet);
