More clues?
I got that error trying to do a keygen myself when the security
database didn't have a master password set.

You can change the password using modutil if you think this might be
your problem.
Well, it seems to be part of the problem; the error message seems to
be another part.
When I did that, I got different results for the following than for the rest:
nistp256
nistp384
nistp521
secp256r1
secp384r1
secp521r1
In those, I get "certutil: signing of data failed: security library:
invalid algorithm.". For the rest, I get ": An I/O error occurred
during security authorization."
I take that to mean that the six listed above are the "real"
algorithms and the others are not. However, I still can't get a
signature. More clues would be helpful.
And, yes, I am volunteering to write all this up for the web page and
so on after I am successful.
