Easy RSA - Failed to generate request when vars specifies EASYRSA_ALGO ec

Post by gbguy71 » Sat Mar 19, 2022 8:34 pm

I am using the latest Easy RSA 3 download contained in the Windows 10 download OpenVPN-2.5.6-I601-amd64

My vars contains:
set_var EASYRSA_ALGO ec
set_var EASYRSA_CURVE secp384r1

After successful ./easyrsa init-pki nopass and ./easyrsa build-ca nopass

I issued a ./easyrsa build-server-full Server-01 nopass
This results in
Easy-RSA error:
Failed to generate request

I commented out the EASYRSA_ALGO and EASYRSA_CURVE and everything works.

Just for grins I put the following in my vars, which I found in a few articles
set_var EASYRSA_ALGO ec
set_var EASYRSA_CURVE secp521r1
set_var EASYRSA_DIGEST "sha512"
set_var EASYRSA_NS_SUPPORT "yes"

Still didn't work!

Any ideas?

TIA
