zmcertmgr - Error Deploying SSL Certificates

We use a shell script to install and update a LetsEncrypt SSL certificate on our Zimbra 9 (Zextras) installation.

On the last renewal, we got this error:

** Creating file '/opt/zimbra/ssl/zimbra/jetty.pkcs12'
ERROR: openssl pkcs12 export to '/opt/zimbra/ssl/zimbra/jetty.pkcs12' failed(1):
pkcs12: Unrecognized flag propquery

I found this similar post in this forum: https://community.zextras.com/forum/zimbra-ose-howto/error-openssl-pkcs12-export-to-opt-zimbra-ssl-zimbra-jetty-pkcs12-failed1/

I found the same solution seems to fix the problem I was having.

As zimbra user, edit /opt/zimbra/bin/zmcertmgr line 1817 and line 1878.  On both lines, modify the @out array, like this:

      @out = $self->run(
            $self->Openssl, "pkcs12", "-inkey", $keyf,
            "-in",          $crtf,    "-name",  $server,
            "-export",      "-out",   $pkcsf,   "-passout",
            "pass:$kpass",  "-nomac", "2>&1"
        );

I don't know if this is correct, but it seems to work for me.

I think this issue was caused by an upstream change to use a new version of openssl.  You can check yours with:

su - zimbra

openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.1t FIPS 7 Feb 2023

FYI only...
