I'm having major grief with this error.  I know that it is normally a
bad key password.  However, I have verified the key password (openssl
rsa) and tried many attempts in case I mistyped the password.

Here is what I am doing.  My aged 486 CA/RA running without X has a CA
cert which is about to expire. The advice on the mailing list was to
create a new CA with a new key.  So I set about to reinitialize the CA.

I first attempted to do this without reinitializing the database but,
after I received this error the first time, I did reinitialize the
database (thankfully, it is just a test system).  The CA initialization
process went fine. However, I then undertook to create the initial
administrator. I am running all functions remotely from a Firefox web
browser since there is no X on the CA/RA.

All seems to work well until I try to issue the certificate.  I have
changed the role to RA Operator and I changed the key to 1024. Other
than that, I took defaults.

I am using OpenCA 0.9.1.  What am I doing wrong? Thanks - John
