Hi, I have lost my public key, I used this public key to generate a certificate request which has been signed. I need to try and recover my key to a .p12 file and reimport it into my program to match the signed cert.
All I have to work with is my key is the format -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----MIGfMA0...-----END PUBLIC KEY-----. What I've attempted, and I maybe way off, is to save the "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----MIGfMA0...-----END PUBLIC KEY----" text as a .pem file and try to export to a .p12 file using the command below which generates the errors as below: C:\OpenSSL\bin>openssl pkcs12 -in TOIpubkeyIS.pem -out TOIaaa.p12 -nodes 2444:error:0D0680A8:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_CHECK_TLEN:wrong tag:.\crypto\asn1\tasn_dec.c:1316: 2444:error:0D07803A:asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_ITEM_EX_D2I:nested asn1 error:.\crypto\asn1\tasn_dec.c:380:Type=PKCS12 Is what I'm trying to achieve even possible? and if so how might I accomplish it?
