Unable to use openssl::certificate::x509 without password

cliff-wakefield opened this issue · 4 comments

Have been trying to create a new certificate with no passphrase on the private key.

Passing 'password' as undef doesn't work.
Not passing 'password' doesn't work.

It results in the following

Enter PEM pass phrase:

Even in debug mode I can't see how its calling openssl to create the certificate.

Ok if I clean out any previous certs it does work. Seems the existing private key wasn't overwritten, so attempts to create the x509 were still prompting for the password.

So it was not really a new certificate as initially reported then, but rather modifying an existing certificate to remove its password, right?
