      Hi A.,

      I experienced exactly the same behavior:

      Generating new key...
      error:0E06D06C:configuration file routines:NCONF_get_string:no value

      I checked phpinfo.php and made sure that OPENSSL_CONF was included and actually pointed to a file owned by the web server. However since I'm useing mod_php rather than executing PHP as a cgi, this variable may need to be defined somewhere else.

      I turned off safe_mode (is this a requirement of php-ca?), but this didn't help.

      I adjusted HOME in openssl.conf to point to the directory where openssl.conf is located (basedir of $OPENSSL_CONF), and created all files and dirs refered by openssl.conf, but this didn't help either.

      A Google group search for this error returns a lot of hits, but most of them are unanswered questions.

      Did you get any replies on your help request?

      Christian

      did you ever get it fixed christian, i'm in the same boat, i did check on ##php on efnet and somone did say it wasn't a php error but was an ssl error, i have also done what you have done.

      also using mod_php5 but using the new openssl 0.9.5 on apache2.

      this is my error output:
      Generating new key...

      Remplace the modules/setup/create.php file with the one attached there: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1160657&group_id=71067&atid=530022
