Here, I just want to add something which may help you all to get the actual picture of my error. I am trying to convert my one pem file to pkcs12 format using the command, but I am getting the error: "No certificate matches private key"* * I am using the command: *openssl pkcs12 -export -in *filename.pem* -inkey * ds.server.info_privatekey.pem* -out *outfile.pkcs12* -name alias *Here: *1. filename.pem --> concatenated file of "certificate" and "RSA private key" 2. ds.server.info_privatekey.pem --> the privatekey file 3. outfile.pkcs12 --> the desired output file. * What should I do now? -- Best, Zico _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
