Hi all,
Here's my situation... I'm trying to
produce certs and keys with the Java security packages
for use in my ssl enabled web server. The problem is
that when I try to start apache in SSL mode, it
doesn't like my server cert's private key. The Java
docs say that the private key I generated is a DER
encoding of the PKCS8 format. I took that output,
base64 encoded it, and added PEM headers. At this
point it "looks" like one that I've created with
openssl. If I try to start apache, it complains about
the key. If I try to look at the key with:
openssl dsa -noout -in key.pem -text
I get the following output (errors):
19268:error:0D080071:asn1 encoding
routines:d2i_ASN1_INTEGER:expecting an
integer:a_int.c:258:
19268:error:0D08A082:asn1 encoding

lib:d2i_pr.c:98:19268:error:0906700D:PEM
routines:PEM_ASN1_read_bio:ASN1 lib:pem_lib.c:290:
Sorry if that's not all lined up nicely...
If I run:
openssl asn1parse -in ~/key.pem
I get the following output:

I've attached that output (asn1parse.out) in case it's
unreadable here. My thought is that I'm doing
something wrong on the Java side, but I have nothing
to base that thought on. Any suggestions
would be extremely helpful. I can provide copies of
the binary and PEM version of my key if anyone needs
them.
Thanks,
Jeff Ricks
