CSR does not have a version number

Question

I'm trying to get a wildcard certificate from Dynadot. I used the Webfaction control panel to generate a CSR. When I submit it to Dyandot, I get the following error:

"Your CSR does not have a version number. Please try using different software to generate your csr."

Please try generating the CSR manually on your server with these commands:

Create the private key:

openssl genrsa -des3 -out private_key_filename.key 2048

Create the CSR:

openssl req -new -key .key -out csr_filename.csr

Remove the passphrase from the private key:

openssl rsa -in private_key_filename.key -out private_key_filename.key2

I hope this helps!
