[389-users] dsconf-adding pkcs12 cert to 398ds/1.4.3.12 fails : "could not decode certificate: SEC_ERROR_INPUT_LEN: security library has experienced an input length error." ?

i've installed

ns-slapd -v
389 Project
389-Directory/1.4.3.12 B2020.213.0000

on

grep PRETTY /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Fedora 32 (Server Edition)"

a server instance is up

dsctl testinst status
Instance "testinst" is running

i check for cipher support

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" testinst security ciphers list --supported | grep -i cha
TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256

setup security, enabling those ciphers

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" testinst security set \
--security on \
--listen-host ldap.testinst.example.com \
--secure-port 636 \
--tls-protocol-min 3.3 \
--allow-insecure-ciphers off \
--allow-weak-dh-param off \
--cipher-pref +TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256,+TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" testinst security ciphers list
+TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
+TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256

bundle my EC cert & key into a pkcs12

openssl pkcs12 -export \
-in testinst.server.EC.crt \
-inkey testinst.server.EC.key \
-out testinst.server.EC.p12 \
-name Server-Cert

verify it

openssl pkcs12 -info -in testinst.server.EC.p12

add my CA cert

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" testinst security ca-certificate add \
--file /src/ssl/myCA.chain.crt \
--name myCA.chain.crt

and, finally, attempt to add my just-created .p12

dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" testinst security certificate add \
--file /src/ssl/testinst.server.EC.p12 \
--name ldap.testinst.server.p12 \
--primary-cert

the attempt FAILs,

Error: Command '['/usr/bin/certutil', '-A', '-d', '/etc/dirsrv/slapd-testinst/certs', '-n', 'ldap.testinst.server.p12', '-t', ',,', '-i', '/src/ssl/testinst.server.EC.p12', '-a', '-f', '/etc/dirsrv/slapd-testinst/certs/pwdfile.txt']' returned non-zero exit status 255.

manually exec'ing that^ failed cmd

/usr/bin/certutil \
-A \
-d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-testinst/certs \
-n ldap.testinst.server.p12 \
-t,, \
-i /src/ssl/testinst.server.EC.p12 \
-a \
-f /etc/dirsrv/slapd-testinst/certs/pwdfile.txt

returns

certutil: could not decode certificate: SEC_ERROR_INPUT_LEN: security library has experienced an input length error.

my cert/key are good, .p12 verification passes ... I'm not sure which 'security library' is being referenced here.

what's the cause of the problem here?

my usage? 389ds capabilities/support?
