can't generate certificate authority

Post by kn6 » Sat Jul 12, 2014 4:34 pm

It's been a really long time since I used openvpn so I'm totally lost at the moment. I have been trying to figure out the problem myself for the past couple of hours but I'm getting no where.

I'm pretty sure something is up with my openssl, maybe it's not in the right place or something. Whenever I do a build-ca nothing happens. It just gives me all these options.

win7 64x:
openvpn-install-2.3.4-I002-x86_64
Win64OpenSSL_Light-1_0_1h

install locations:
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN
C:\OpenSSL-Win64

environmental-variables:
Path
C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin
OPENSSL_CONF
C:\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openssl.cfg

Figured it out..

For whatever reason it won't work in powershell, but when I switched to cmd it worked fine. Blah, what a waste of time.
