I was having the same issue while uploading the certificate on the backend and finally found the solution after lot of struggling. Do the following:

  1. Select keys from your keychain
  2. Locate desired push private key
  3. Click the small arrow to expand the key & profile
  4. Now select the certificate only (this is a crucial step) no both the key & certificate ONLY SELECT CERTIFICATE and click for export
  5. Set password for your exported certificate and upload
