| #This is just a listing of the commands for generating your SSL certificates | |
| #Run these commands one at a time from inside your ~/ssl folder | |
| #Make sure you create your server.csr.cnf and your v3.ext files first inside the same folder | |
| #private key generation | |
| #This will ask you for a passphrase(password) do NOT lose this file or the password | |
| openssl genrsa -des3 -out ~/ssl/rootCA.key 2048 | |
| #create root certificate | |
| openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key ~/ssl/rootCA.key -sha256 -days 1024 -out ~/ssl/rootCA.pem | |
| #create the private key for the certificate (server.key) | |
| openssl req -new -sha256 -nodes -out server.csr -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -config <(cat server.csr.cnf) | |
| #generate server.crt | |
| openssl x509 -req -in server.csr -CA ~/ssl/rootCA.pem -CAkey ~/ssl/rootCA.key -CAcreateserial -out server.crt -days 500 -sha256 -extfile v3.ext | |
| #verify that you did everything right | |
| openssl x509 -text -in server.crt -noout | |
Make sure to give both server.crt (the file you want to create) and server.csr.cnf (the file you are ) referencing the proper path, you can replace YOURUSERNAME with your username in the terminal but remember it is case sensitive:
openssl req -new -sha256 -nodes -out /Users/YOURUSERNAME/ssl/server.csr -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -config <(cat /Users/YOURUSERNAME/ssl/server.csr.cnf)
EDIT: do the same with the next one for V3.ext and the file you want to create - otherwise the file you create will not show up in the folder - and also use the folder path for the command where you check the validity
EDIT2: check if you use SSL or ssl as your folder name since it is case sensitive
I have the same issue when last command :

If you are manually typing from the video, notice that he made a typo - it should be rootCA.pem not rootCA.prem - it's fixed on the commands above, but misspelled in the video. Change the extension and you're good to go.
I have the same issue:
