Hi, I have the public and the private key for ECDSA on secp128r1 in a file stored in PKCS8 format (saved with Crypto++; it is PKCS8 according to the Docu).
I can create a signature without an error but unfortunately it is not validated successfully with my Crypto++ app: $ cat testakt.txt | openssl dgst -ecdsa-with-SHA1 -sign test.key -keyform DER >act.bin On the other hand, if I want to check a signature, I cannot even open the (public) key file: $ cat testakt.txt | openssl dgst -sha1 -verify activation.pub -signature act.bin unable to load key file Though I am not sure I assume that openssl does not accept PKCS8. Can anyone tell me how openssl can read PKCS8 or if the problem is somewhere else?
