In a command window type: set OPENSSL_CONF=c:\openssl\openssl.conf
change "c:\openssl\openssl.conf" to the path of your configuration file. Or open up the control panel and open the system dialog. Click on the environment button and add new system variable. Reboot the computer and run your openssl command. ----- Original Message ----- From: Walid Nasri To: openssl-users@openssl.org Sent: Saturday, September 05, 2009 8:50 AM Subject: Openssl Configuration File Hello I installed OpenSSL on Windows I have Apache 2.2 WebServer I need to generate a certificate, in order to purchase certificate license from CA when I use the openssl generate command: openssl genrsa -out mykey.key 1024 I also tried: openssl genrsa -config openssl.cnf -out mykey.key 1024 but I keep getting this error: WARNING: can't open config file: /usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf Loading 'screen' into random state - done Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus ......++++++ ..........++++++ e is 65537 (0x10001) although I have Windows, the Openssl seems to see linux (/usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf) I tried many ways in order to set the path of the conf file, but I failed any suggestions please?? thanks for help -- http://rappelz.gamepower7.com/index.php/ref?rid=636 Best Regards Walid Nasri
