I am testing my implementation of OpenSSL within an existing application by
creating certificates using the instructions in the O'Reilly book, chapter 5.
When I use the client.pem file with SSL_CTX_set_certificate_chain_file, and the
root.pem file with SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations, then SSL_connect() throws the
following error:
error 18: self signed certificate
However, when I check these same files with 'openssl verify', OK is reported.
What could be causing this discrepancy?
Following is a listing of the client.pem file generated by 'openssl x509 -noout
-text -in client.pem'
