I’m trying to test push notifications for my app, but can’t connect to the apple sandbox with my certificate and private key. I’m following this tutorial.
I set up a new certificate and app id per the tutorial, set up a private key, and generated the .pem files for the certificate and the private key:
openssl x509 -in aps_developer_identity.cer -inform der -out PushTestCert.pem
openssl pkcs12 -nocerts -out PushTestKey.pem -in PushTestKey.p12
For the private key, it asks me to enter the original password the key, as well as a new one. I used the same password.
Then I test the connection to apple and am prompted for my password, and I enter the new password for the key .pem file, which is the same as the old password:
openssl s_client -connect gateway.sandbox.push.apple.com:2195 -cert PushTestCert.pem -key PushTestKey.pem
Enter pass phrase for PushTestKey.pem:
error setting private key

Is there something I’m missing? On the iOS provisioning portal my app id says it is enabled for development (push). I’ve tried re-downloading the openssl certificate, no cigar.
I reset my login keychain and started from zero on the ios provisioning portal. I think I had an extra key somewhere that was interfering.
