Hi,

That error means the file the tls-config node is configured to use doesn’t exist. That’s all we can say without more information about how you’ve configured the node and what steps you’ve taken to create/provide the requires tls certificates.

being Windows you may need to escape those \ characters. so c:\\ …etc - or maybe c:/ instead

Hello @knolleary,

in node-red is like below:

![node-red%20tls%20config](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/1X/457a99ef0b3699ab033d0de7413b0e287b7e015d.png)

I've created the certificates directly from the AWS when creating the thing.

Thank you in advance.

Have you tried the suggestion from @dceejay ?

Try using forward slashes rather than back-slashes - ie `C:/Users/Danilo Mota/1c308041b7-certificate.pem`

The file listing shows you have a file called: `1c308041b7-certificate.pem.crt`

The error is for a file called `1c308041b7-certificate.pem`

What have you entered for the ‘Certificate’ field in the node? The screenshot you’ve shared doesn’t show the full path.

You got it. It was missing the “.crt”. 😒

Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to do the same (connect node-red to aws iot core) and I have exactly the same problem. I made sur not to forget the .crt but this is still my error message:

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\Users\bpi\Desktop\AWSIOT\Device2SIM-fe87e36c4b-certificate.pem'

I also tried with backslash and frontslash it doesn't help.

Screenshot of node-red:

Can anyone help with this? Thank you a lot!

Tutorial I tried to follow:

And the full paths I typed are:
