Re: how can I use PKCS#8 in open-ssl?

[Dr S N Henson]

 
 I will use an private keys which encoding is PKCS#8.
  
 Used open-ssl version is 0.95a ...
  
 Is the usage below valid? if invalid, let me get the write usage please..
  
 
   FILE* fp;
   EVP_PKEY* pkey;
   char keyfile[]  = "user1.pem";
 
   fp = fopen (keyfile, "r");
   if (fp == NULL) return -2;
   
   pkey = PEM_read_PrivateKey(fp, NULL, NULL, NULL);
   
   if (pkey == NULL) { 
ERR_print_errors_fp (stderr);
return -2;
   }
 fclose (fp);
 
 The result is :
 
  Enter PEM pass phrase:
  1564:error:06065064:digital envelope routines:EVP_DecryptFinal:bad 
decrypt:d:\work\evp_enc.c:243:

Yes that looks OK. The error is either due to an invalid password, a
corrupt key or one generated using a broken password algorithm.
