Ssh installation error "RSA key generation failed"
While trying to upgrade ssh from v4.7 to v5.0 on AIX 5.3 TL9, I end up with the following error.
Quote:
RSA key generation failed
instal: Failed while executing the ./openssh.base.server.post_i script.
0503-464 installp: The installation has FAILED for the "root" part
of the following filesets:
openssh.base.server 5.0.0.5302
installp: Cleaning up software for:
openssh.base.server 5.0.0.5302
Has anyone come across this?
Note: openssl has been upgraded to 0.9.8.840 before this upgrade
