I had some issues trying to sign my certificate request, generated by
exchange 2007 using OpenSSL (with my own self signed certificate
authority for internal use). I saw at least one other person who had
trouble with it in the archives, but no replies. OpenSSL wouldn't read
the certificate request, instead you get "unable to load X509 request".
After an hour searching the internet, trying to figure out what was
wrong, I finally figured it out (and smashed my head against the desk
once I realized what it was).
OpenSSL doesn't like the extra line break exchange puts in between the
end of the BASE64 encoded data and the "----- END CERTIFICATE
REQUEST-----" lines.
Take out the extra blank line and everything will work fine.
I post this hoping I can save someone else from spending an hour or two
trying to figure this out!
Thanks,
Grant
