It needs to prompt you for the passphrase to use to encrypt the privatekey-file with, and is failing somehow (but we don't know exactly how). What type of system are you running on (Windows, Linux, Mac, Sun, HP, VMS(!), etc) and what kind of interface to it on systems that have more than one (console window, ssh+terminal, telnet+terminal, xterm, other emulator, real terminal, etc)? Alternatively, if you can't figure out the problem with prompting, you can avoid it by using -passout to supply the password instead. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
