Why I get "The specified PFX password is not correct" when trying to sign application with signtool? -


i followed link sign exe application.

  • i installed sdk tool on windows 7,

  • run c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.1\bin>makecert.exe -sv app-o.pvk -n "cn=my digital key" app-o.cer

dialog opened provide password:

enter image description here

i wrote password : 'fess'

new window opened:

enter image description here

i entered: 'fess'

#succeeded

files app-o.cer , app-o.pvk creaded.

now generate pfx:

pvk2pfx.exe -pvk app-o.pvk -spc app-o.cer -pfx app-o.pfx

dialog opened provide password:

enter image description here

i pasted 'fess'

file pfx created.

now run signtool:

 c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.1\bin>signtool.exe sign /f "app-o.pfx" /p fess "c:\output\setup.exe"

here got error:

signtool error: specified pfx password not correct.  number of files signed: 0 number of warnings: 0 number of errors: 1

what did miss?

btw, same error cmd shell of windows sdk.

thanks,

there couple of problems.

first of using self-signed certificate, should define explicitly adding -r key makecert command or you'll error "the signer's certificate not valid signing" @ sign step.

next, @ step

signtool.exe sign /f "app-o.pfx" /p fess "c:\output\setup.exe"

you trying open pfx using password "fess". didn't set password pfx file. should add -po key pfx creation command.

after can sign application.

so correct process be:

makecert.exe -sv app-o.pvk -n "cn=my digital key" app-o.cer -r  pvk2pfx.exe -pvk app-o.pvk -spc app-o.cer -pfx app-o.pfx -po fess  signtool.exe sign /f "app-o.pfx" /p fess "c:\output\setup.exe"

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers ...
