AMQ9629E: Bad SSL cryptographic hardware parameters, on Linux

EXPLANATION:
The following string was supplied to specify or control use of SSL
cryptographic hardware:
‘GSK_PKCS11=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opensc-pkcs11.so’. This string does not
conform to any of the MQ SSL cryptographic parameter formats. The channel is
‘ECRSA1024’. The channel did not start.

Colin’s comments

I had specified

SSL:

SSLCryptoHardware=GSK_PKCS11=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opensc-pkcs11.so;my_key3;648219;SYMMETRIC_CIPHER_ON;

with the parts delimited by a semicolin.

When I “escaped” the semicolons with \; I got further

SSLCryptoHardware=GSK_PKCS11=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opensc-pkcs11.so\;my_key3\;648219\;SYMMETRIC_CIPHER_ON\;
