#1224 PKCS12Export does not show error message.
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by edewata.

Currently in the normal mode PKCS12Export does not show any message if there is an error:

$ PKCS12Export -d /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias \
  -p wrong_password.txt -w wrong_password.txt \
  -o backup.p12

In the debug mode it will show the exception (still not a proper error message):

$ PKCS12Export -d /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias \
  -p wrong_password.txt -w wrong_password.txt \
  -o backup.p12
PKCS12Export debug: The directory for certdb/keydb is /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias
PKCS12Export debug: The password file for keydb is wrong_password.txt
PKCS12Export debug: PKCS12Export Exception: org.mozilla.jss.util.IncorrectPasswordException

The command should display a proper error message in the normal mode because people mostly use the normal mode and can be mislead by the lack of error message.

Proposed milestone: 10.2.x


Correction, in the debug mode the command should have been:

$ PKCS12Export -debug -d /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat/alias \
  -p wrong_password.txt -w wrong_password.txt \
  -o backup.p12
