I am having trouble generating the needed pkcs8 private key for the
java client application.
Google has published instructions here:
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/docs/auth/oauth.html#openssl

The first command:

     # Generate the RSA keys and certificate
     openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -sha1 -subj \
     '/C=US/ST=CA/L=Mountain View/CN=www.example.com' -keyout \
     myrsakey.pem -out /tmp/myrsacert.pem

is successful and generates the myrsakey.pem file.
The second command:

     openssl pkcs8 -in myrsakey.pem -topk8 -nocrypt -out myrsakey.pk8

fails with "unable to  load key"

I have been able to reproduce this problem on multiple machines with
different operating systems and installations of openssl.  Has anyone
else experienced this behavior?  What am I missing?

David
