Symptoms

When using the GUI, if a user adds a '.key' extension to the name, the file will be created with an extra .key extension to the file.

Impact

Conditions

When a key file name is 'test.key' entered from the GUI it is created with 'test.key.key'.

Workaround

Delete the key and recreate without the .key in the name.
