Hi,
I've been working on making a COM object that uses OpenSSL to sign some
data that I'm using for a form of software licensing. I have code that
works fine as an executable on Windows, but when I try to make a COM
object, I can't seem to load the private key from a string. I'm not
sure if I'm doing something wrong or not.
Here's the code I have to load the private RSA key from a string. After
this has been run, key is NULL, so it didn't succeed in loading the key
from the given string.
STDMETHODIMP CLicence::GenerateLicence(BSTR licenceData, BSTR keyString,
BSTR passphrase, BSTR *licence)
{
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState())
EVP_MD *md = EVP_sha1();
EVP_add_cipher( EVP_des_ede3_cbc() );
EVP_PKEY *key = NULL;
BIO *bio = BIO_new_mem_buf( (char *) keyString, -1 );
PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(bio, &key, NULL, (char *) passphrase );
BIO_free( bio );
...
I'm trying to access this object from an ASP page. The specific error
from openssl is "error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line"
Does anyone have any ideas on what might cause this?
Thanks,
