Cannot install certificate: asn1 encoding routines:d2i_ASN1_SET:badtag

Hi,

I just got an SSL certificate from Verisign. However, when I try to
start apache pointing to my key file and certificate, I get the
following error:

[Tue Oct 1 21:17:28 2002] [error] mod_ssl: Init: Private key not found
(OpenSSL library error follows)
[Tue Oct 1 21:17:28 2002] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D084069:asn1 encoding
routines:d2i_ASN1_SET:bad tag
[Tue Oct 1 21:17:28 2002] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09D082:asn1 encoding
routines:d2i_RSAPrivateKey:parsing
[Tue Oct 1 21:17:28 2002] [error] OpenSSL: error:0D09B00D:asn1 encoding
routines:d2i_PrivateKey:ASN1 lib

This is NOT the case of file not being found and NOT the case of having
to enter the passphrase. Also, I ran openssl -modulus, and the output is
the same for the certificate and the key file.

I would be grateful for any recommendations.

Thanks,
Simon
