^{Originally posted by **vermaete** April 1, 2024} Hi, To start, I didn't find time to dig into this issue myself yet. Sorry for asking it so fast. I'm running the tests of OpenDDS version 3.27 at an Debian 12 box. And in the log I see `ERROR: could not sign`. But the tests seems to pass. The configuration was done with `./configure --tests --security --doc-group3 --prefix=/usr` And the tests with `./auto_run_tests.pl --security 2>&1 | tee -a run.log` ``` auto_run_tests: tests/security/attributes/run_test.pl SC0_sec_off ERROR: could not sign /home/jan/projects/OpenDDS/tests/security/attributes/subscriber -Governance governance.xml.p7s -Topic OD_OL_OA_OM_OD -IdentityCA ../certs/identity/identity_ca_cert.pem -PermissionsCA ../certs/permissions/permissions_ca_cert.pem -DCPSConfigFile unsec_base.ini -Identity ../certs/identity/test_participant_02_cert.pem -PrivateKey ../certs/identity/test_participant_02_private_key.pem -Permissions permissions/permissions_test_participant_02_allowall_signed.p7s -Timeout 10 -DCPSDebugLevel 4 -ORBVerboseLogging 1 -DCPSTransportDebugLevel 2 -ORBLogFile subscriber.log -DCPSPendingTimeout 3 subscriber PID: 2225413 started at 2024-03-31 21:52:31 /home/jan/projects/OpenDDS/tests/security/attributes/publisher -Governance governance.xml.p7s -Topic OD_OL_OA_OM_OD -IdentityCA ../certs/identity/identity_ca_cert.pem -PermissionsCA ../certs/permissions/permissions_ca_cert.pem -DCPSConfigFile unsec_base.ini -Identity ../certs/identity/test_participant_01_cert.pem -PrivateKey ../certs/identity/test_participant_01_private_key.pem -Permissions permissions/permissions_test_participant_01_allowall_signed.p7s -Timeout 10 -DCPSDebugLevel 4 -ORBVerboseLogging 1 -DCPSTransportDebugLevel 2 -ORBLogFile publisher.log -DCPSPendingTimeout 3 publisher PID: 2225414 started at 2024-03-31 21:52:31 Starting publisher Starting publisher with 17 args Reliable DataWriter Transport is RELIABLE Reliable DataReader USER DATA: Creating Writer Starting Writer SampleInfo.sample_rank = 0 SampleInfo.instance_state = 1 Message: subject = Review subject_id = 99 from = Comic Book Guy count = 0 text = Worst.
