Might it be that the serial number is not quite valid (also here it works),
since it's 00? Maybe you already once imported a certificate with the same
serial number? Can you check under "Bearbeiten-Einstellungen" "Datenschutz &
Sicherheit-Zertifikate-Zertifikate verwalten" if there is already another
certificate with the same serial number?
