PEM Requests
Processing certificate requests in the EJBCA CA UI can use either binary or PEM format certificate requests.
If you receive a binary request and want to convert it to PEM, do the following:
- Base64 encode the request according to the following example and refer to the source input and destination output filenames:CODE
openssl base64 -in MY.cvreq -a -out MY.cvreq.pem - In the beginning of the file, add
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----and at the end of the file, add-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----according to the following example:
XML
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
