Well, as my first idea about how to solve this problem was to build exim4 optionally with OpenSSL, i didn't bother to track it down in GnuTLS. For now, i can tell you roughly where it happens: #0 0xb7d83947 in raise () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #1 0xb7d850c9 in abort () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #2 0xb7f5aaaf in _gnutls_fbase64_decode (header=0xb7f9f2f5 "RSA PRIVATE KEY", data=0x8071e30 "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"..., data_size=3215787612, result=0xbfad0718) at x509_b64.c:521 #3 0xb7f8b593 in gnutls_x509_privkey_import (key=0x8071cf0, data=0xbfad0784, format=GNUTLS_X509_FMT_PEM) at privkey.c:381 #4 0xb7f6ec81 in _gnutls_x509_raw_privkey_to_gkey (privkey=0x8071cc8, raw_key=0xbfad0784, type=GNUTLS_X509_FMT_PEM) at gnutls_x509.c:686 #5 0xb7f6edca in read_key_mem (res=0x8071c68, key=0x8071e30, key_size=912, type=GNUTLS_X509_FMT_PEM) at gnutls_x509.c:732 #6 0xb7f6ef3c in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file (res=0x8071c68, CERTFILE=0xbfad3879 "exim.crt", KEYFILE=0xbfad3861 "exim.key", type=GNUTLS_X509_FMT_PEM) at gnutls_x509.c:785 #7 0x0804df87 in main (argc=Cannot access memory at address 0x7ed1 ) at serv.c:804 #8 0xb7d6fea8 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 #9 0x0804b011 in _start () at ../sysdeps/i386/elf/start.S:119 so this tells me _gnutls_base64_decode() returns a negative value. Well, i can't find an obvious error in _gnutls_base64_decode() and decode(), so i'll try to further investigate that tomorrow. I masked the key in the backtrace - of course there was also a newline character every 64 characters. Greetings, Felix -- | /"\ ASCII Ribbon | Felix M.
