Hi @Ameenun,

Based on the error cause “Invalid rsa key, reason - bad decrypt”, it looks like there’s some issue with your private key related to decryption. You can use the below command to check if it’s a valid RSA key or not

openssl rsa -in privatekey.pem -check

Note: Replace privatekey.pem with the name of the file containing your private key

This should hopefully give more information on what’s the issue with the private key.

Regards,

Amar

@AMAR DEVEGOWDA I ran in to the same error when i had used a encrypted private key in keystore jar. The solution was to unencrypt the priviate key by using the following command:

openssl rsa -in [file1.key] -out [file2.key]

Enter the passphrase and [file2.key] is now the unprotected private key.

The output file: [file2.key] should be unencrypted. To verify this open the file using a text editor and view the headers.

Encrypted headers look like this:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,

6AC307785DD187EF…
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Unecrypted headers look like this:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
6AC307785DD187EF…
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
