Hi,
I am trying to create to use certificate for the first
time.
I am using Redhat Linux 9.0 server with openssl
"openssl-0.9.7d" installed and compiled.
I have done following steps.
##########
[ root]#openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 2048
This propmted me for passowrd. O.K.
[ root]#openssl req -new -key server.key -out
server.csr
This prompted me for data. common name, etc. o.K.
[ root]#openssl genrsa -des3 -out ca.key 2048
This prompted me for password. O.K.
[ root]#openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key ca.key
-out ca.crt
This prompted me for data O.K.
everything worked fine till this stage.
When I want to create certificate with following
command :
[ root]# openssl ca
Using configuration from /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf
Error opening CA private key
./demoCA/private/cakey.pem
6198:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file
or directory:bss_file.c:25
9:fopen('./demoCA/private/cakey.pem','r')
6198:error:20074002:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system
lib:bss_file.c:261:
unable to load CA private key
File "/usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf" is very much there
but values are still default. Not altered with what i
entered earlier.
Need help.
Do I have to change values in file
"/usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf" manually?
and then use command "openssl ca"
Thanks for support.
