Interesting...I got this error today, while trying to update device certificate on our vCMP (standalone) hosts.

I started to do the conversion to DER, when I took another when I noticed that my files has .key before .cer (PEM)...due to how the files got named.

fully.qualified.name_server.key
fully_qualified_name_server.cer

Trying again, paying careful attention to which when into which section... and this time the PEM version worked without this error. 🙂

Still trying to figure out what I should do about the vCMP pairs.
