^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Check for the existence and readability of you CA's private
key. The key is in a file that is named within
/usr/local/ssl/lib/ssleay.cnf
as "private_key" in the section that is named under "default_ca".
If file exists try ssleay rsa -nout -text -in name_of_private_key_file
if this works under httpd UID then your script should run fine.
