Re: can't load private key from /root/foo.pem

There is no need to use the "Decode As..." if you configure the RSA key list correctly in the SSL protocol preferences. 
You should configure the RSA key list like this:

<server-ip>,<server-port>,<protocol inside ssl>,<key-file-location>

If I understand you correctly, your SSL traffic is not on port 443, so let's assume your server is at 10.0.0.1 and uses 
port 8443 and the protocol inside SSL is http, you would use:

10.0.0.1,8443,http,/root/foo.pem

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
     Sake

    Thank you Sake! The error message has gone away. 


    But I'm still not able to see the header of http in a plain text. I'm using the context menu "Decode As.." to 
decode the encrypted packet but no success! Any clue?


    Thanks

    The file /root/foo.pem probably contains both the certificate and the key. You should delete the part with the 
certificate. Or you could use the following openssl command:

    openssl pkcs12 -in foo.p12 -out foo.pem -nodes -nocerts

    Hope this helps,
    Cheers,
         Sake

        Hi there,


        I'm facing the following error when adding a private key to the "RSA key list" field on Wireshark preferences. 


        can't load private key from /root/foo.pem


        The key was generated by $JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool and then I used the following commands to export it to a PEM 
format


        keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore .keystore    -destkeystore foo.p12    -srcstoretype jks    -deststoretype 
pkcs12
       openssl pkcs12 -in foo.p12 -out foo.pem


        My question is how can I find out what is going on? Is there any debug flag that can use to help me find out 
the issue?


        Thanks in advance


        Thiago Moreira
