you said you downloaded them; but maybe you missed step 3 from the instructions?
=====
Make a directory inside of /var/pkg to store the key and certificate,
and copy the key and certificate into this directory. The key files
are kept by reference, so if the files become inaccessible to the
packaging system, you will encounter errors. Here is how to do it:
$ pfexec mkdir -m 0755 -p /var/pkg/ssl
$ pfexec cp -i ~/Desktop/OpenSolaris_extras.key.pem /var/pkg/ssl
$ pfexec cp -i ~/Desktop/OpenSolaris_extras.certificate.pem /var/pkg/ssl
