Errors generating SSL self signed certificate

[Dirk Ehrhardt]

Hello everybody,

I am new to openssl and desperately looking for a solution on my problem.

SAP AG refers to openssl to create a self signed SSL certificate in
order to be able to connect to SAP Business One via mobile devices.

Now I have done that successfully on one of our servers to test the
procedure. After that I tried the same at one of our customers sites.

I Installed the Version OpenSSL 1.0.2 (64 bit) and set the conf-path like this:

C:\Users\SAPADMIN>set OPENSSL_CONF= C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openssl.cfg

In a first test run I successfully went through a complete process.

But when I had gathered the relevant information and wanted to go with real (productive) values, the System reported the following error(s) when I tried to start over with the generation of the server key:

C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin>openssl genrsa -out ServerKey.key 1024

8876:error:0200107B:system library:fopen:Unknown error:.\crypto\bio\bss_file.c:168:fopen(' C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openssl.cfg','rb')
8876:error:2006D002:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:system lib:.\crypto\bio\bss_file.c:173:
8876:error:0E078002:configuration file routines:DEF_LOAD:system lib:.\crypto\con
