Pass phrase incorrect - apache2

[HPP]

Hi,
I have installed apache 2.0.50 on hp-ux 11.11. I have ssl certifcate signed by verisign and also i have self signed certifcate. I tired to use both with following configuration in ssl.conf for auto start of ssl

SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/opt/hpws/apache/conf/parseinput

When i try to start apache with "apachectl startssl" it fails with the following error

[Fri Oct 29 15:52:27 2004] [error] Init: Pass phrase incorrect
[Fri Oct 29 15:52:27 2004] [error] SSL Library Error: 218710120 error:0D094068:asn1 encoding routines:d2i_ASN1_SET:bad tag

[Fri Oct 29 15:52:27 2004] [error] SSL Library Error: 218734605 error:0D09A00D:asn1 encoding routines:d2i_PrivateKey:ASN1 lib



If i use the following in ssl.conf

#SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/usr/local/bin/killappinput
SSLPassPhraseDialog builtin

then i manually enter passphrase then it works fine.

Am i missing something?

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I forgot to mention one more thing. The same certs works fine on apache 1.3.27, with

SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/opt/apache/conf/parseinput


Manual intervention is not required. Apache reads pass phrase from the file.

Thanks

I did not see any response for my question. Any input in this regard would be of great help.

If it works from the command line and it doesn't work in scripted mode, check the environment.

env > /tmp/command.txt

check the environment in your script. see if the SHLIB_PATH variable is correctly set.

Here is the oput of env

PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/contrib/bin:/opt/hparray/bin:/opt/nettladm/bin:/opt/upgrade/bin:/opt/fcms/bin:/opt/pd/bin:/opt/resmon/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/contrib/bin/X11:/opt/graphics/common/bin:/opt/gnome/bin:/opt/mozilla:/opt/mx/bin:/usr/sbin/diag/contrib:/opt/wbem/bin:/opt/wbem/sbin:/opt/java1.4/jre/bin:/opt/java1.4/bin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/perf/bin:/opt/ignite/bin:/sbin:/home/root
COLUMNS=142
EDITOR=vi
LOGNAME=root
MAIL=/var/mail/root

USER=root
SHELL=/sbin/sh
JAVA_HOME=/opt/java1.4
HOME=/
TERM=vt100
PWD=/opt/hpws/apache/conf

SHLIB_PATH is not set, still command line pass phrase works.

Thanks
